From the producer

William Ortiz produces coffee at La Cabaña in Pitalito, Huila. SEY's 2026 profiles document Caturra, Pink Bourbon, and Chiroso on the farm, including multiple Chiroso harvest separations.

From the roaster

SEY Coffee is a Brooklyn roaster that publishes lot-level origin, harvest, processing, and green-coffee pricing details for these releases.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

SEY identifies this as an early 2026 Chiroso separation from southern Colombia, where the variety has spread beyond its better-known association with Urrao in Antioquia.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Selective picking and sorting

Cherries were hand-picked at peak ripeness and floated to remove lower-density defects.

02
Overnight cherry rest

The selected cherries were held intact overnight.

03
Depulping and fermentation

The coffee was depulped and dry-fermented for 36 hours.

04
Washing and drying

The lot was washed, then dried on raised beds until moisture reached 10.5%.

What was added?

No additives are disclosed in the roaster's processing description.

What wasn't added?

No inoculated culture, fruit addition, or post-roast flavoring is disclosed. The source also does not publish a lot-specific roast level.

Why it matters

Separating the harvest pass and documenting each processing step prevents three related La Cabaña releases from being collapsed into one profile.

What you might taste

SEY's stated profile is stone-fruit-forward, with peach, lemon zest, and wildflower honey.

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 2026-10-25) 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

Non-exact, seller, directory, generic-roaster, different-release, duplicate, and older-release sources were excluded. No qualifying independent exact-release review remains.

Same coffee, different roaster?

Other roasters, same producer.

These coffees come from the same producer or farm, offered by other roasters. We never automatically declare two offerings the exact same coffee — a match requires lot, harvest and traceability details. Even a true same-lot pair can taste different: roast approach, freshness, rest and brewing all reshape the cup.
