Our Thoughts:

Excited to get our hands on this exceptional and exclusive ORGANIC coffee which is available in limited stock. The notes from these beans are a smooth blend of fruity berries mixed with honey and apples. The creamy texture complements excellent with rich dark desserts.

Origins:

The municipality of Inzá is located in the corner of the Department of Cauca, bordering with Tolima and Huila and looking out to the west over the Pacific Ocean. Situated on the “Macizo Colombiano” (the Colombian Plateau), which surrounds the high peaks of Tolima and Huila, the region is an important source of water and wildlife, in addition to being prime coffee growing land.

This coffee was produced by 40 smallholder coffee producers hailing from the sub-municipality of Belen. Every single micro-lot delivered was cupped and reserved due to its scoring 85 points or above by the community cupping lab. These stringent standards result in very limited quantities of this exceptional coffee being made available for export. This particular group is also one of the first from the region to be an entirely organic certified coffee. An initiative aimed at certifying all producers in the region has now meant that 80 producers are, as of 2020, now certified as organic producers.
