This Colombian Yellow Papayo lot comes from a close collaboration between esteemed producer Nestor Lasso and influential sourcing group Cata Export. Grown at Nestor’s farm El Diviso in Huila and processed with a multi-step fermentation approach assisted by baker’s yeast and the thermal shock technique, the result is a coffee that’s bright, sweet, and deeply characterful.
Expect syrupy body, prominent tropical fruit notes and a clean finish. It’s a distinctive cup reflective of its post-harvest processing, and a demonstration of the potential of Nestor and Cata’s burgeoning partnership in producing high-quality, high-value coffees.

Cata founders Catalina Gutiérrez and Pierre Fargetton first met Nestor Lasso during a coffee sourcing trip in 2019 to Bruselas – a small town high up in Colombia’ prolific growing region of Huila. After tasting his coffees, they embarked on a partnership to support Nestor in exporting his coffees to Europe.
Fast forward six years and Nestor, with substantial financial and market insight support from Cata, has built a reputation as one of the world’s most influential coffee producers. His coffees are renowned for their wildly vibrant flavour profiles, several of which have been used by baristas to win global barista competitions.
This coffee is a celebration of a partnership progressive, impactful and founded on purposeful collaboration to create the maximum amount of value for each participant in the coffee supply chain. An example of true innovation.
