Description
Coffee cultivation from small family owned farms is the backbone of production in Colombia. This traceable community blend with a vibrant regional profile comes from 80 producers with small farms in the municipality of Inza within the department of Cauca. Each producer has their own micro-mill where they carefully harvest cherries, depulp, ferment, wash and gently dry the parchment on raised beds. While individual producers have designed farm management and post-harvest solutions to fit their needs, they banded together for crucial logistical demands for things like warehousing and milling coffee for export to the international market, which provides better income for everyone to reinvest in their farms and strengthen their families’ livelihoods.
Tasting Notes: A nice clean cup! Tasty from light to dark but shines at the lighter roast points (city + to full city). Good body with a pronounced toasted walnut and baker’s chocolate undertone. A bit of acidity upfront at lighter roasts makes it an interesting cup at almost any roast point. Lighter roasts promote a bit of fruity factor between the citric/floral and chocolaty notes – on the sweeter side. Strong medium to dark roasts mute up almost all of the spice notes (the stronger chocolaty tones cover it up) and the cup becomes big bodied and baker’s chocolaty.
Roasting Notes: An easy to roast coffee. Avoid light roasts if you do not like acidity. A full city roast really bring forth the baker’s chocolate like undertones, a nice medium roast has the best balance but everyone here liked it best close to just touching 2nd crack going after the bigger body and chocolaty factor.
