El Indio, Colombia - Single Origin FILTER

Strawberry • Cherry • Sweet Spices • Rum

The coffee is a result of the El Indio program, where smallholder farmers in Planadas manage their own cultivation, harvest, milling, and processing with guidance from Cofinet. Cherries are sorted and sun-dried until ideal moisture levels are reached, then gathered at ASOPEP for export or local sale. This exceptional coffee boasts flavors of ripe purple fruits, strawberry jam sweetness, and a lingering taste of rum and raisin chocolate.
