Colombia Cauca El Totoro

This coffee comes from the Totoro, Cauca region in the highlands of southwest Colombia.  It is grown by seven farmers: Ciro Antonio Camayo, Maria Teresa Paz, Ramiro Antonio Vainas, Arley Arturo Camayo, Edelmira Camayo, Loborio Zambrano, and Aiber Fredy Vainas.  According to our broker, they work closely with:

“an export company called Banexport to gain access to technical support for best agricultural practices. Banexport has matched these regional producers because of their shared commitment to exquisite coffee processing and loving care for their farms, which produce complementary profiles (see Royal Coffee)”

This coffee cupped with an unusual brightness for a Colombian bean.  It has distinct citrus and stone fruit tones, but cools to a chocolate flavor.  Delicious.
