About this coffee

Origin: Colombia Region : Tolima Processing: Natural Variety: Colombia, Castillo, Caturra Altitude: 1700-2000 m a.s.l. ABOUT THE COFFEE Gaitania is an exceptional lot created by smallholder producers from the vicinity of the town of Gaitania, located in the municipality of Planadas in the south of the Tolima region. The coffees come from plantations situated at an altitude of 1,700–2,000 m above sea level, where the Castillo, Caturra, and Colombia varieties are cultivated. Combining beans from several farmers made it possible to create a coffee with a distinct, juicy character that perfectly reflects the potential of this region. ABOUT THE PROCESSING After harvesting, the ripe cherries fermented for 38 hours and then dried for eight days on raised, covered African beds. The slow and controlled drying highlighted the natural sweetness and complexity of flavor. In the cup, you will find juicy papaya and passion fruit, notes of wild berries, and the velvety sweetness of maple syrup. The overall profile is intense, fruity, and slightly funky – full of character, yet perfectly balanced at the same time. ROASTER'S OPINION Gaitania is Colombia without compromise.

It is a natural full of energy, distinct sweetness, and aromas that linger in the memory for a long time. Exotic notes of ripe papaya and juicy passion fruit dominate the cup, offset by a clear accent of wild berries.

It is precisely the combination of exotic fruits, intense sweetness, and syrupy smoothness that gives this coffee its characteristic, funky style. It is bold, full-bodied, and distinct, with every subsequent sip revealing new nuances of flavor. This is a choice for those seeking coffees with character who are not afraid of intense, fruity taste experiences. Store in a dry and cool place.
