    I recently purchased a bag of Tiny Arms Colombia Juanambu from Nibbana Cafe in Lowell, MA, conveniently located near the Tiny Arms roasting facility.

    The aroma of this coffee is remarkable, boasting a unique combination of sweetness, floral tones, and fruity fragrances.

    Upon brewing and tasting, I was impressed. The platform is like a strongly-brewed black tea. It also carries delightful fruity undertones throughout the palate. I detected hints of green apple at the forefront, followed by a touch of sour cherry in the middle, and a final tropical note reminiscent of pineapple. The aftertaste is both refreshing and enjoyable.

    Overall, this coffee offers a clean and pleasing finish, leaving a lasting positive impression. This is on the very light side in my opinion, and not necessarily characteristic of Colombian many people like. A specialty coffee roaster who appreciates fruitiness and acidity will enjoy this a lot.

    Easy to drink light roast. I had some recently that fit my Colombian preferences more. This was a bit acidic and not as smooth. It had very good fruity character.

    A clean, clear flavor that is light and fruity. There is a bit of a citrus burst at the finish. The interesting, layered flavors indicate a high quality and unique light roast. The flavor profile consistently holds up throughout the entire cup.

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.
Bean Source Region: Nariño
Nariño combination of high altitude, volcanic soil, and proximity to the equator creates ideal growing conditions that result in coffee beans with bright acidity, complex flavors, and a distinctive floral aroma. Nariño coffee is often characterized by its well-balanced profile, with notes of citrus, red fruits, and chocolate, making it a core of the iconic Colombian flavor beloved globally.
