    This is a super tasty coffee. This is the 3rd premium Colombian lot I've had this week and the best of the 3. It has that fantastic Colombian smoothness and milk chocolate character, a hazelnut tinge, and then some pineapple and blood orange. Really quite good.

    It's a bit of an unassuming coffee - looks like a field blend out of the bag with all sort of varietals. Definitely some magic in the fermentation process. I couldn't really tell you what 170 Washed Lactic Fermentation in Honey means.

    Cupping Method:: Chemex Pourover. This is direct shipped from the roaster/wholesaler.

    This roast has a strong flavor, with a lively and spritely feel. It is a bit astringent, has lemony tilt, and hints at a sweetness reminiscent of a breakfast pastry.

More Details

Roast Level: Light
Light roast coffee is a delicately roasted coffee that retains more of the beans' natural flavors and characteristics. Light-roasted coffees have bright acidity, complex fruit, and floral notes. Light roast coffee does not have less caffeine than darker roasts because caffeine levels remain stable during roasting.
Bean Source Country: Colombia
Colombian coffees are known for their balanced taste, featuring bright acidity, medium body, and a range of flavors, including fruity notes, caramel sweetness, and nutty undertones. Colombia's worldwide reputation for producing great coffee at scale is well-deserved. Increasingly some of the best microlot specialty roasts are coming from Colombia thanks to their expertise in cultivation and process.
