【Coffee Information】
Coffee Flavor
The flavors of coffee are derived from the breakdown of various nutrients in the green coffee beans during roasting. Heat causes these compounds to degrade into a variety of aromatic molecular structures, resulting in a wide spectrum of flavors. High-quality coffee beans naturally possess a rich aroma that evolves at different temperatures—high, medium, and low—offering a delightful and nuanced experience worth savoring.

天職莊園Hacienda Misiones
Hacienda Misiones is located in Cundinamarca, the department surrounding Colombia's capital, Bogotá, approximately a 2.5-hour drive from the city. With a history spanning more than a century, Hacienda Misiones was once one of the region's most prominent coffee estates, cultivating coffee across nearly 1,300 hectares to produce high-quality commercial-grade beans. Over time, however, the estate gradually reduced its coffee-growing area as portions of the land were granted to longtime employees as retirement benefits or in recognition of their lifelong dedication. This reflects the owner's deep appreciation for the people who helped build the estate, treating them as members of the family. Today, small homes scattered throughout the property belong to those former employees, who have made their lives and communities on the land they once worked.
Exploring the estate today, its remarkable scale is still evident—traveling across the property is most easily done by car or on horseback. Hacienda Misiones is now entering a new chapter, transforming into a destination that combines specialty coffee production, hospitality, and education. Inside the estate's former wet mill, now preserved as a museum, stands a massive processing machine that operated entirely through gears, belts, and human power rather than electricity—a fascinating reminder of the estate's rich history. In recent years, the coffee program has been led by estate manager Luis, who has dedicated himself to introducing specialty coffee, believing it represents the future and renewed identity of Hacienda Misiones. The team has introduced new coffee varieties from other growing regions and works closely with professional researchers to ensure rigorous standards in farm management and cup quality. We are delighted to witness this exciting transformation and to share the fruits of their dedication with you.
Arabica Variety – 蘇丹汝魅Sudan Rume
Discovered around 1940 on the Boma Plateau in southern Sudan, near Ethiopia, Sudan Rume is a rare indigenous variety often regarded as a prized resource for coffee exploration. The trees are tall with elongated beans and show strong disease resistance, though yields are low. Rarely grown at large scale, Sudan Rume appears mostly in micro-lot productions, prized for its highly complex and distinctive flavor, making it a favorite among specialty coffee enthusiasts.
Major Coffee Varieties
The coffee tree, botanically classified under the Rubiaceae family and the Coffea subgenus, is an evergreen tree. Coffee beans are the seeds of the coffee fruit. There are three main varieties: Arabica, Robusta, and Liberica. These three varieties cannot crossbreed to produce different subspecies. The world’s specialty coffee comes from the Arabica variety, and within Arabica, there are various subspecies resulting from evolution, hybridization, and mutation.
(Coffee Processes)
The term "processing methods" refers to the process of transforming ripe red coffee cherries into dried green beans. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, influenced by the natural environment and the specific needs of the coffee-producing region. As a result, different regions adopt the processing method most suited to their conditions. This batch uses the following three processing methods, described below:
【Washed Process】
Also known as the wet process, this method involves removing the skin and pulp of the coffee cherries before drying. The seeds are then fermented in water tanks to eliminate the remaining mucilage on their surface, followed by thorough washing and drying under sunlight or with mechanical dryers.
The washed process produces a cleaner and crisper flavor profile compared to the natural process. Coffees processed this way typically have lighter body, brighter acidity, and distinct fruit flavors. This method is often associated with specialty coffee due to its clarity and vibrant flavor expression.
This batch of Sudan Rume from Hacienda Misiones was processed using a simple and traditional washed method. Carefully selected ripe cherries were passed through a depulper to remove the skin and pulp, then fermented for 48 hours under controlled temperature conditions. The beans were thoroughly washed with clean water to remove the remaining mucilage and impurities, and finally dried on raised beds for approximately 15 days until the moisture content reached the ideal level.
