The A.M.O.C. roastery presents a limited edition of WILDER LAZO select coffee from Colombia, whose flavor profile dazzles with its elegant aroma and fruity depth. This unique lot from Wilder Lazo comes from the La Dinastia farm in the Huila region and combines the Maragogype and Geisha varieties – two legends of specialty coffee. The result is a complex taste experience with notes of jasmine, apples, nectarines, and grapes, complemented by the sweetness of caramel and milk chocolate. Thanks to washed anaerobic processing, the coffee retains a sparkling acidity and silky texture that will delight any filter coffee lover.
The Lazo family specializes in producing specialty coffee in San Adolfo, Huila. Their journey has not always been easy—a devastating fire forced them to leave their farm, but thanks to their unyielding determination, they returned and rebuilt La Dinastia from the ground up. Today, the whole family is involved in the work, with each member contributing to perfect production – from drying to precise processing. La Dinastia has become a symbol of determination and quality, with Wilder Lazo continuing the family legacy with innovative approaches to processing and careful selection of varieties that stand out in the cup for their uniqueness.
This lot was processed using a washed anaerobic method, which emphasizes its purity and clarity of flavor. After hand-picking, the beans are first selected according to their degree of ripeness using a Brix refractometer, then floated to remove unripe or defective beans. They are then carefully sorted by hand and fermentation begins. First, the cherries are placed in GrainPro bags to minimize oxidation. After hulling, fermentation continues in stainless steel tanks for 120 hours at a controlled temperature of 14 °C and pH 4.3. This is followed by thorough washing and drying in a marquee for 8 to 15 days until the beans reach an optimal moisture content of 11%. Finally, the coffee is stabilized for 20 days to ensure consistency and full flavor potential. This meticulous method gives WILDEZ LAZO its unmistakable sweetness, juiciness, and long-lasting aftertaste.
