We source our Beans from the Medellin area of Columbia. Thanks to the area’s good climate and nearby fertile mountainous terrain, coffee has had a long and successful history in Medellín and the broader region of Antioquia.
At the turn of the 20th century, Antioquia overtook the region of Caldas as the leading coffee-growing region in Colombia. Soon, it became recognised for providing consistently high quality beans. Alongside gold mining, the production of coffee dramatically contributed to the region’s growth throughout the century.
We purchase from a small farmers who grow his coffee at high altitudes and relatively low temperatures, which are both perfect for quality arabica production. These conditions cause cherries to ripen more slowly, producing full-bodied flavours and distinctive aromas.
