Your expert A question about this product?

When does your coffee reveal its full potential?

At Chronic., we roast our coffees every day. We always try to send them out after a short resting period, but sometimes, when demand runs high, they may reach you very fresh.

After roasting, coffee keeps evolving. It gradually releases the carbon dioxide built up during roasting, which lets the cup settle into balance. Notes that are too sharp or pronounced soften, making room for more precision, sweetness and complexity. Letting coffee rest means giving it time to show everything it has.

We recommend resting it for at least 15 days after roasting. For our seasonal and exceptional coffees, the ideal tasting window is usually 3 to 6 weeks after roasting.

The best way to brew it

Some coffees show their aromas best with a particular brewing method, and that's what we recommend here. Of course, feel free to experiment with other methods. We love hearing what you think.

At the head of the Los Aguacates farm, perched in the highlands of Tolima, Luis Ernesto Nieto embodies a new generation of Colombian producers who combine tradition and innovation.

Luis Ernesto places great importance on quality: all harvests are carried out by hand, only with perfectly ripe cherries, then processed in micro-lots. This artisanal approach allows him to express the unique potential of his terroir, producing coffees that are bright, elegant, and always marked by natural sweetness and refined aromatic complexity.

Today, his coffees are recognized beyond Colombia’s borders and captivate specialty coffee enthusiasts for their balance and distinctive character. Through his work, Luis Ernesto Nieto is establishing Los Aguacates as a rising reference in Tolima and contributing to strengthening Colombia’s reputation as one of the world’s cradles of specialty coffee.

all about this coffee

COLOMBIA, TOLIMA

Located in the heart of the Andes mountain range, the Tolima region is one of Colombia’s hidden gems. Still preserved from large-scale industrial production, it captivates with the authenticity of its landscapes: steep mountains, fertile valleys, and unique microclimates. Coffee trees grow here between 1,600 and 2,000 meters above sea level, nurtured by sunny days, cool nights, and regular rainfall that encourages slow and even cherry maturation.

The volcanic soils, rich in minerals, provide incomparable aromatic density. Added to this is an intact biodiversity, where forests, rivers, and plantations coexist in balance. This unique combination of terroir and climate gives rise to coffees of great elegance, renowned for their natural balance, sweet smoothness, and bright, lively acidity.

Today, Tolima stands out as one of the leading regions of Colombian specialty coffee, driven by passionate producers like Luis Ernesto Nieto, who carry on an artisanal and respectful agricultural tradition.
