Glee Coffee Roasters - Colombia / Quindio

Tasting Notes: Strawberry, Green apple, Caramel.
Recommended for Espresso or Filter.

Our producer Jairo Arcila is a third-generation coffee grower, local to the Quindio region. He and his family are continuing the coffee tradition, now with his two sons founding Cofinet, an co-operative representing Colombian coffee growers. The Arcila family have a keen interest in producers that use experimental processing methods. The anaerobic process is one of these, with cherries fermented for 40 hours, then transferred to raised beds for sun-drying. The varietal used here is Castillo, which is more productive and resilient than other native Colombian species.

We love this coffee cos: it’s a standout on the table with a cupping score of 87! Bottom line for you. It tastes really good. Caramelly apple goodness is what’s popping for us when we are sipping this baby.

Our Glee family have roasted this coffee to suit both espresso/filter applications.
