Differente Coffee, the Colombian roastery founded by Carlos Escobar, selected and roasted this lot as part of its program of origin-focused Colombian coffees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOmbligón is a rare Arabica variety grown in Colombia, mainly in Huila, though a lot from Risaralda was reviewed in September 2026. Its name comes from the Spanish word \u003cem\u003eombligo\u003c\/em\u003e (navel), after the variety’s distinctive shape.It is often marketed as a natural mutation of an Ethiopian landrace, but Colombian growers also note Caturra-like traits, and some suggest it is a mutation of Pacamara, Bourbon or Castillo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is prized for intense red-fruit and floral cups. It gained international attention when Australia’s Jack Simpson used it to place third at the 2023 World Barista Championship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLot details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFarm: Chorro Alto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegion: Oporapa, Huila, Colombia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: Ángela Rojas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariety: Ombligón\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess: Experimental Washed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoaster: Differente Coffee\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess.\u003c\/strong\u003e The washed process removes the skin and fruit from the seed and breaks down the remaining sticky layer, called mucilage, through fermentation.

On October 18, 2026, he won the Colombian Brewers Cup (Campeonato Colombiano de Cafés Filtrados) in Bogotá. This is his second Colombian national title, and it qualifies him to represent Colombia at the World Brewers Cup again.
