Why some details are blank
  • farm idThe verified literal name is El Roble in San Carlos, Urrao, but the existing El Roble entity describes a different Santander estate owned by Oswaldo Acevedo; no replacement entity was created.
  • retail price and packageSEY's archived exact page omits the retail offer, and the exact catalog listing previously checked displays internally conflicting prices.
  • roast levelNo exact-release source publishes an unambiguous conventional roast-level value for the SEY release.
  • formal green gradeSEY publishes detailed provenance and green pricing but no formal green-coffee grade for this lot.
  • bag-specific roast dateNo public exact-release source establishes a retail-bag roast date.
  • public sentimentNo qualifying independent exact-release tasting review or rating was found.

From the producer

Albeiro Ramirez is the named producer of this San Carlos, Urrao Chiroso lot. SEY describes this as its first year buying his coffee and credits him as an exceptionally talented producer.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based micro-roastery focused on sourcing and roasting dynamic, complex coffees that highlight the unique characteristics of their origin.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This release documents a first-year SEY relationship with Albeiro Ramirez and a Chiroso expression from farther south in Urrao, with unusually specific harvest and post-harvest details.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
24-hour cherry rest

Peak-ripe cherries were held intact for 24 hours.

02
Floating and depulping

The cherries were floated to remove defects and then depulped.

03
36-hour dry fermentation

After depulping, the coffee dry-fermented for 36 hours.

04
Raised-bed drying

The coffee dried on raised beds for 20 days until moisture reached approximately 10%.

What was added?

SEY's exact release discloses no added fruit, commercial cultures, sweeteners, or flavorings.

What wasn't added?

No co-ferment ingredient or post-roast flavoring is disclosed.

Why it matters

The documented steps support a traditional washed-process classification. They do not support assigning an anaerobic, inoculated, co-fermented, or flavored label.

What you might taste

SEY lists gooseberry, peach, and star fruit.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

Research complete — no qualifying reviews yet

Our research pipeline scanned public reviews, videos, forums and discussions for this coffee (last pass 2026-11-05) and found no independent review of this exact release that meets our verification standards. When qualifying sources appear, they'll be published here.

What we found

Method: exact-title, producer, farm, roaster, and tasting-note searches were checked. The official archive and exact catalog pages verify identity but supply no independent tasting evaluation. Reviews and listings for Albeiro Ramirez coffees roasted by Big Step, Flower Child, Barismo, and other roasters were excluded as different releases.
