Roast Style: Classic

These will be fuller bodied coffees that exhibit more obvious roast-centric flavours, like caramelised sugar.

While bitterness has its place in every coffee, there is enough of that in each raw coffee without us ever feeling it is necessary to add more of that through the roast process. For this reason, even our darkest roasts are still very moderate medium roasts, relative to the full spectrum of coffee roasts available in the market today.

Our classic coffees will make great espresso-based beverages, and they're a good option for french press and moka-pot brewing, especially if you like your coffee with milk.

Roaster's Notes

While the region has embraced a variety of cutting-edge alternative processing techniques, there’s something truly special about a well-executed Colombia washed coffee. Its clarity and elegance stem from high-altitude farms, fertile volcanic soil, and a climate that nurtures exceptional quality. Extending this coffee’s development phase during the roast draws out the inherent sweetness, resulting in a balanced, approachable cup that shines both on its own and with milk—ideal for any time of day.

COFFEE ORIGIN INFO

La Montaña is a three-hectare farm owned by Arley Gomez. Nariño, in Colombia’s far southwest near Ecuador, is one of the country’s most challenging yet fascinating coffee regions. Farms here are very small and perched at extreme altitudes of 2050 - 2200m ASL on steep, remote slopes. These lofty altitudes contribute to this lot’s wonderfully vibrant character. Distinct from the rest of Colombia’s coffee-growing areas, Nariño’s exceptionally dry harvest conditions and low humidity play their role in shaping this coffee’s unique, high-clarity flavour profile.
