The story

This coffee comes from the Nariño region in Colombia. It was handpicked in several passes to harvest only the ripest cherries, then hand-sorted to remove defects. The cherries then underwent a honey fermentation, a true specialty of the Cooperativa de Cafes Especiales. The humidity being particularly lower in this region, this type of fermentation works wonderfully. This lot consists of Caturra, one of the most cultivated varieties in Colombia. In the cup, we appreciate its smoothness and full body as well as its hint of fruit to perfect a beautiful balance.
