Red Rooster Columbia Light Roast Coffee

Our new Colombian micro lot comes to us from producer Jose Musse and his small farm in Inzá. Grown in the Andes mountains, coffees from this area are known for their unique flavors and juiciness. The cup is clean and sweet with a light body and buttery mouth feel. We taste fresh fruits with notes of strawberry tea and sweet tomato. ROAST: Light PROCESS: Washed This microlot comes to us from Jose Musse's small farm located in the Inzá municipality on the Colombian Massif. This area, also called Nudo de Almaguer, is a mountainous region in the south-central Colombia Andes. Known for its biodiversity and unique ecosystems, the region boasts the origins of several major rivers including the Magdalena, the Cauca, and the Patia. The whole area is an UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and a critical water source for Colombia. Inzá is surrounded by volcanoes and characterized by its river-carved steep mountains and deep valleys. It has an exceptional climate for coffee, with hot, dry days and cold, humid nights, conditions that favor the development of complex notes in the cup. The region's high elevations, rich volcanic soil, climate, and close proximity to the Equator combine to provide the ideal growing conditions for specialty coffee.
