Monteblanco Mango is coffee in extreme mode.

Produced by Rodrigo Sánchez at Finca Monteblanco (Huila), this lot is one of the most radical examples of experimental fermentation in Colombia. Using real fruit (mango) and a mix of selected yeasts, the result is an intensely tropical and highly aromatic profile.

Located at 1,730 meters above sea level, this coffee takes advantage of one of the country's most privileged microclimates, leading to vibrant and complex profiles.

This is not a traditional coffee—it's an experience.

Process

Processed through natural co-fermentation with mango, this coffee follows an advanced protocol:

Selection of cherries with high sugar content (Brix)
Mixing with yeasts (lactobacillus, saccharomyces, cerevisiae)
Addition of mango and natural sugars to feed fermentation
Extended fermentation (~180h) in a sealed environment
Subsequent washing
Drying on parabolic beds (25–30 days)

This process creates an intense, creamy, and very expressive profile.

KB Coffee Roasters is a Parisian roastery obsessed with one thing: flavor.

Their philosophy is simple yet radical — they choose coffees solely for how they taste, not based on trends, marketing, or history. Each batch undergoes blind cuppings, and they only select what they are truly excited to drink every day.

Their approach is deliberately "selfish": they roast the coffee they love. This honesty defines their identity — they aren't trying to please everyone, but rather to create something truly special.

Behind every coffee is rigorous work with long-term producers and partners, nurturing the entire process from origin to cup.

👉 Result: authentic, precise coffees made with a real obsession for quality.
