About the coffee:Cupping notes: Sweet, full-bodied, bright fruity notes of grape, peach, and tangerineCultivation: Mountain grown in volcanic soils, high in the Andes mountains in west-central ColombiaAltitude: 5,250-6,800 feetVarieties: Castillo, ColombiaPreparation: Fully washed, patio dried
About the people who grow it:The department of Tolima, near Colombia’s Central Mountain Ranges in the southwest, is a rich agricultural area, thriving as the third-largest producer of Colombian coffee. The region, sitting at altitudes of 5,250–6,800 feet, benefits from tropical weather and fertile soil. The name Tolima originates from the Pijao language, translated as “Snow River” or “Cloud.” Its soil is naturally enhanced with volcanic ash from the nearby Nevado del Tolima Volcano. The Atá river, passing through the Plandanas and Ataco Municipalities, is an important landmark that supports both coffee cultivation and a commercial fishing industry among the western Colombian hills.
The mineral-laden soil, coupled with the traditional wet milling and natural drying processes, yields a high-quality, fragrant coffee known for its bright acidity and notes of ripe, red fruits.
This lot of Fair-Trade Organic coffee comes from InConexus, a Colombian company that works with local cooperatives to provide market access to small farms that previously lacked a connection to the international specialty coffee market. The firm assists cooperatives with infrastructure projects like road improvements, local warehouses, and micro-loans. It promotes sustainability through agroecological and regenerative practices, and helps farmers get organic certifications. The company also runs programs like "Women's Power" to elevate the role of women in the coffee supply chain through workshops and skill-building activities.
About me and how I operate:I've been an avid home coffee roaster since 2004, always searching for high-quality, socially-responsible, and environmentally-sustainable green coffee beans. When I find them, I love to share them. I buy only current crop year, and move it from warehouse to my house to your house as fast as possible. I keep prices as low as I can. I'm retired, and this is something I do for the joy of it. Prompt and personal customer service is my commitment. I'll try to answer any questions, and give advice to start-up roasters. Just ask.
I stock coffee grown on farms that pay fair wages, practice sustainable agricultural, and improve their community. I've traveled to coffee-producing regions, and seen how people live. Growing coffee can and should improve people's lives and respect God's creation. Through my importers, I can document where the coffee comes from, and how that farm operates. I provide that information here.
Customers often ask which countries are my favorites. I'm hesitant to say. Coffee is a matter of personal taste, and what appeals to me may not appeal to you, and vice versa. Furthermore, coffee origins can vary widely from one season to the next, within the same country, region, or even on a particular estate or co-op. Every bag of coffee I buy has unique characteristics that may not be fully replicated again, due to variability of weather, processing, shipping conditions, and countless other factors. When I buy coffee, I seek out the origins that are most interesting to me at that time, and which come with high recommendations from my importers and their professional cuppers. Yet, part of the joy of roasting coffee is never knowing exactly what pleasant surprise awaits you when you take your first sip of a new batch.
Returns:If you don't get the coffee you ordered, or found it defective or damaged during shipping, I'll gladly offer you a refund or replacement, if you return the entire order before roasting within 14 days. Since good coffee is a matter of personal preference, and a great coffee can suffer from small mistakes in roasting, please don't ask for a refund after you roasted it and aren't crazy about the results. But rest assured! I don't sell any coffee that I haven't already roasted myself, brewed, consumed, and greatly enjoyed.
