Nestled into a canyon on the spine of the Andes, as the mountain range cuts a path through Colombia, is the municipal district of Chaparral, Tolima; home to Asociación Surcafés, a group of fifty-or-so producing families. The region is filled with hundreds of small lakes and streams, many of which feed Río Magdalena as it slices through Colombia’s central valley. The government restricts the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in the area, and so these smallholders have achieved their organic certification and are working towards earning both Rainforest and Fair Trade certificates.
This coffee is a great staple single origin, and is well-rounded and has great sweetness!
