COLOMBIA ORGANIC NARINO - 34355 - 70.0 kg GrainPro Bags - SPOT RCWHSE

Regional Details: The department of Nariño, has been racking up accolades with multiple top finishes in Colombia’s Cup of Excellence auctions over the last few years. Nariño’s proximity to the equator means intense exposure to the sun (relatively constant and powerful year-round), which influences the cherry maturation rate.

As a result of these combined attributes, coffee plants passively absorb the sun’s energy during the day and then come alive at night when the conditions are less harsh.

This translates into concentrated flowering and long cherry maturation periods. Processing Details: All of these factors can produce exceptional coffee but there is a human factor that cannot be overlooked.

This lot represents a classic Nariño profile traceable to small farms in the region. Farms are just a few acres in size, which is small enough for the producer to carefully handle all of the post-harvest processing on their own farms.

With their own micro-mills,

they carefully harvest cherries, depulp, ferment, wash and gently dry the coffee.

Imagine the harmony between these producers in farm management and post-harvest practices to achieve a clean and consistent blend. But also just enough differences from farm to farm to create a rich complexity of flavors.
