A 17/18 screen (Supremo), the Colombia Huila is smaller-bodied when compared to its relative, the Bucaramanga. Grown and harvested in Huila, Colombia, this bean’s origin lies near the Nevado de Huila volcano––the soil is rich with minerals, and the microclimate is perfect for perfect, complex coffee. The producers use manual, hand-cranked machines to de-pulp the bean’s cherry, and raised beds dry the coffee evenly. The beans are expertly handled at every processing stage Cupping Notes: Well balanced acidity and a delicate medium body. It starts off sweet with notes of tart fruit and finishes with a bittersweet, dark cocoa notes.
