The Orchid – Colombia – Medium Roast Coffee

Did you know that a big portion of the world’s orchids can be found in the beautiful country of Colombia? This country is also well known for its specialty coffee. In Colombia there are 560,000 coffee producing families, 96% are small producers of only 1.3 hectares. Juan Chamorro is one of those producers! His farm is in Belen de Umbria, a little town in Risaralda state, which is in “EJE CAFETERO” or the coffee region of Colombia. This particular coffee is a Caturra variety bean that is grown at 1,850 meters above sea level and wet processed by Juan on site at his farm. We purchase these amazing beans through a direct trade relationship with Colombian Coffee Hunter, and roast them in very small batches in Texas. Our roasting process brings out the blackberry, milk chocolate, caramel, and almond notes.
