He's a third-generation grower at El Diviso, a farm near Pitalito in Huila that his grandfather, José Uribe, founded. Around five years ago Nestor and his brother Adrián took it over and turned it decisively toward specialty — micro-lots, rare varieties and tightly controlled fermentation rather than the commodity coffee the family had grown before. They work closely with Jhoan Vergara of the neighbouring Finca Las Flores, pooling knowledge across the two farms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eEl Diviso sits high in the Colombian Massif, above 1,750 metres, where cool nights, fog and volcanic soil slow the cherries and build density in the bean. The farm carries an unusual spread of varieties — Sidra, Geisha, Pink Bourbon, Java and more — processed plot by plot so each one can be handled on its own terms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe variety here is Typica Mejorado, which is more interesting than its name lets on. Despite the \"Typica,\" genetic testing has shown it isn't really Typica at all: it's a cross of Bourbon and an Ethiopian landrace, originally from Ecuador, sought after for gesha-like aromatics and a refined, tea-like sweetness. It's a demanding plant that rewards high altitude, which is exactly what El Diviso gives it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe processing is anaerobic washed — the coffee is fermented in sealed, oxygen-free vessels before being washed, \u003cstrong\u003ea method Nestor uses to build aromatic complexity while keeping the cup clean\u003c\/strong\u003e. Tanat roasts it for filter and finds \u003cstrong\u003ecoconut, peach, raspberry and the bright, zesty lift of makrut lime\u003c\/strong\u003e, with medium acidity and a silky body. They scored it 87.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eFreshly roasted by \u003cstrong\u003eTANAT in Paris\u003c\/strong\u003e and imported to the UK by ROAST EDIT Co.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TANAT Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55811337093505,"sku":"TAN-NESME-F-200","price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/5450\/0225\/files\/tanat-nestor-lasso-typica-mejorado-washed.jpg?v=1781710104","url":"https:\/\/roastedit.co.uk\/products\/tanat-nestor-lasso-typica-mejorado-washed-200g-colombia","provider":"Roast Edit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
