Enjoy a powerful, balanced coffee with citrus notes and finely roasted.
Grown between the Colombian forest and the Caribbean sea, this high altitude coffee is unrivaled. The tropical climate and terroir work to grow thousands of coffee plants spread over 5 hectares.
The price of the coffee is set to “custom amount” with a default minimum price, allowing you to add an extra donation if you wish.
Let yourself be carried away by the exoticism of its intense aromas and make your daily ritual a moment rich in meaning.
The grains are harvested by hand and a traditional machine allows us to depulpe the coffee beans.
The grains are spread out so that they can dry in the sun for several days. Once dry, each grain is sorted and selected by hand to offer you quality grains. Damaged grains are discarded.
The beans are toasted gradually to a temperature of 180 degrees and then cooled naturally before being optimally packaged.
