Castillo Natural Beans

Classic Colombian, reimagined with sweetness and depth.

The Castillo varietal is one of Colombia’s most beloved coffees, celebrated for its resilience, balanced flavour, and versatility. At Tío Conejo Café, we elevate Castillo to new heights by using the natural process — drying the whole coffee cherries under the Colombian sun. This method allows the fruit’s natural sugars to infuse into the beans, creating a cup that is both vibrant and complex, while still maintaining the smoothness that Castillo is known for.

Every bean is hand-harvested at perfect ripeness on the slopes of Manizales, where rich volcanic soil and high-altitude conditions create the ideal environment for cultivating coffee of extraordinary character.

Flavour Profile:

• Aroma: Bright red fruits with notes of cocoa and honey.
• Taste: Sweet and juicy, with flavours of ripe strawberry, cherry, and hints of tropical fruit layered over a base of milk chocolate.
• Body: Medium-bodied with a silky texture and balanced sweetness
• Finish: Long and lingering, with a clean fruit-forward aftertaste.

Why it’s Special:

Castillo Natural bridges the gap between tradition and innovation. While Castillo is a cornerstone of Colombian coffee heritage, the natural process transforms it into something bold, fruity, and adventurous — a coffee that delights both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers to specialty brews.

It’s a cup that reflects Colombia’s future: deep roots in tradition, but always moving forward with creativity and care.
