Roaster’s Notes
This coffee comes from the central Andean mountain range, a massive chain of mountains that traverses much of the southwestern part of the country.It is in Saladoblanco, where we met Jose Arias López, who, along with his family, has dedicated his entire life to producing specialty coffee. They mostly grow the Caturra variety, which has been cultivated in this region since the arrival of the Jesuits in the 17th century.
