Curator's Notes
One Colombian coffee farmer, one farm, one classic cup. This limited-edition roast evokes all the romance of the Juan Valdez narrative of Colombian coffee: small farmers lovingly devoted to their practice in the midst of one of the largest coffee-producing countries of the globe.
Roaster's Notes
As a student, Javier Golondrino used to help his father pick coffee every season. When Javier turned 15, knowing that he had a knack and a love for farming, his father gifted him a small part of the family farm. Javier has managed to grow his small parcel of land into a reasonably-sized farm of 2 hectares and now cares for 10,000 Caturra and Colombia trees high in the hills surrounding the small town of La Plata in Colombia’s Huila department. Javier hand harvests all his coffee, resulting in an immaculate, nuanced coffee that is by necessity of very limited quantity. Notes of caramel dominate, and the cup cools to a white grape acidity. Delicate aromas of nutmeg and almond close into a long, toffee-like finish.
