THE PRODUCER’S STORY
The Asociacion Los Naranjos San Agustin is a group of 97 small-scale
coffee growers. Each farmer harvests only about 15 hectares of land.
By associating together, these farmers are able to invest in
infrastructure and processes that they wouldn’t be able to on their
own. For instance, all coffee from the group is fully washed, patio
sun-dried and hand sorted.
Largely because of their investments, the farmers of Asociacion Los
Naranjos San Agustin have been able to produce award-winning
coffees. Their lots have won the Cup of Excellence, and been used by
winning baristas in the United States Barista Championship and the
World Barista Championship.
ROASTER’S NOTES
We approached this coffee with a little extra heat upfront, because it’s
extremely fresh and has a high moisture content. After the initial
burst, we let the heat level out for an early first crack and medium
finish. The end result is a great tasting coffee roasted to our Balanced
Profile.
DID YOU KNOW
This coffee comes from Huila, which sits high in the Central and
Eastern mountain ranges of Colombia. In fact, the country’s secondhighest peak is in the region. One of the two varietals in this lot is
Caturra. Caturra is known for producing great coffee at high altitudes,
like those of the Huila region.
