What Dukes Coffee say

Sugar-sweet, tangelo and pink grapefruit. Clean and bright with a long cacao finish.

Yuver Andres Arambulo Castro's 18 Hectare regenerative organic farm, Finca El Paraiso, is located in the central valley of the Tolima department in Southern Colombia, just outside the community of Siquila. We have worked exclusively with Yuver since 2020 to separate his best coffees as single farm microlots.

Yuver is a trailblazer in achieving Regenerative Organic Certification, one of the first producers in Colombia to do so. We are thrilled to champion Regenerative Organic Certification (ROC) as the pinacle of certifiable organic farming and the only certification that guarantees the highest level of soil health, biodiversity and farm community welfare.

This coffee is the perfect showcase of a high altitude, highly refined Caturra lot, which has been grown under shade and handpicked only when ripe. This lot was dry fermented as cherry for 12 hours, then de-pulped on-site and fermented under water for 18 hours in tanks (depending on pH).

Dried on covered patios for 8 days before being exposed to full-sun drying during daylight for a further 5 days.

Our recommended recipe for brewing at home or in-cafe, using a Kōno Meimon dripper.

Other equipment configuration may require slight recipe modification.

Yuver Andres Arambulo Castro's 18 Hectare regenerative organic farm, Finca El Paraiso, is located in the central valley of the Tolima department in Southern Colombia, just outside the community of Siquila. We have worked exclusively with Yuver since 2020 to separate his best coffees as single farm microlots, the first time this has been achieved in the community.

Working alongside his brothers, Adrian Alexis and Arbey Camilo, Yuver continues to push the boundaries of coffee production in a region where traditional methods remain the norm. Among the first producers in the area to plant Gesha, the Arambulo Castro family has spent years refining extended fermentation and innovative processing techniques.

Given their preposterously high growing elevation (at 1930 masl), we are have been enjoying tasting Yuver's best lots each season over the past four seasons and seeing the marked improvement in cup quality year on year.

This coffee is the also the first Regenerative Organic Certified coffee to be imported into Australia. We are thrilled to champion Regenerative Organic Certification (ROC) as the pinacle of certifiable organic farming and the only certification that guarantees the highest level of soil health, biodiversity and farm community welfare. Yuver has held Silver level ROC since 2023 and serves as a model for sustainable agriculture in medium sized coffee farming.
