🥤 Orange Soda • 🍇 Red Grapes • 🥭 Dried Mango • 🍈 Honeydew

Intro

Sunshine in a cup. Tropical Popsicle is a Yellow Caturra from Finca Rio Negro in Huila, co-fermented with passion fruit and orange — and it tastes exactly like the name suggests. Bright orange soda, juicy red grapes, dried mango and honeydew melon make this one of the most playful coffees on our shelf.

Details

The Producer

COTA Coffee started as a project between two friends in Thailand and Colombia and now brings Colombian coffees to 15 countries across Asia. It works directly with farms like Finca Rio Negro, choosing lots for distinctive cup profiles, careful processing and full traceability — every bag records its harvest and milling dates.

The Process

A Washed Co-ferment:

• 🍒 Ripe cherry selection — Yellow Caturra cherries picked at peak ripeness
• 🍊 Co-fermentation — Fermented with a mosto of passion fruit (maracuyá) and orange
• 💧 Washing — The mucilage is washed off to keep the cup clean and bright
• ☀️ Controlled drying — Dried slowly to lock in the aromatics

The Cup

Fizzy orange soda hits first, followed by red grapes and the chewy sweetness of dried mango. Honeydew melon brings a cool, refreshing finish. Very sweet, bright and juicy, with a noticeable but clean fermentation character. Excellent as pour-over and outstanding over ice.
