Their research focused on 42 carefully selected specimens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne tree from Tanganyika (Tanzania today) stood out. It showed exceptional drought tolerance and produced beans with a strikingly complex flavor. The researchers labelled it SL28—“SL” for Scott Laboratories and “28” for its position in the sequence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTracing back in time, Tanzania's coffee landscape has been catalysed by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGerman colonisation in the late 19th century. They introduced Arabica varieties and established plantations on the fertile slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru. A rapid expansion in production followed. Even a\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003efter World War I, British rule continued this momentum. To support small-scale farmers, the British formed cooperatives which gradually become the backbone of Tanzania’s coffee sector. Distributed in the different regions of Tanzania, these cooperatives became the breeding grounds for field-mutated varieties, which subsequently led to SL28's discovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAfter its discovery and promulgation, SL28 quickly earned a reputation for excellence. It delivered high yields and produced beans known for bright acidity, layered complexity, and a distinctive floral character. These traits made it a favorite among specialty roasters and coffee professionals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJardines del Edén is Cofinet's flagship farm, where they focus on growing exotic coffee varieties of competition grade and trying out experimental processing methods. We visited the beautiful farm in 2019 during our visit to Cofinet farms including Santa Monica. Coffee harvesting is done by hand, afterwhich they are transported to La Pradera wet mill for processing. This station is also the HQ of Cofinet, established by Jairo Arcila's two sons - Carlos and Felipe Arcila. La Pradera processes coffee from their own farms and selected farms not owed by them for processing or marketing \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eunder the Cofinet brand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRoast Level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe are roasting this coffee light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrew Level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe are brewing this coffee with V60 using Abaca filter paper, in 2 parts.
