Couldn't load pickup availability
Sourced from the extreme elevations of Villa Moreno in Buesaco, Nariño, this community lot represents the collective effort of dedicated smallholders like Ximena Cifuentes. The unique microclimate of the region is shaped by the Meneses stream and volcanic soil, which together slow the ripening of the coffee cherries to concentrate complex sugars. This specific espresso iteration is a washed field blend comprising Caturra, Colombia, and Castillo varieties, all harvested during the peak summer months to ensure maximum flavour maturity.
The profile is engineered for clarity and syrupy density, delivering a sophisticated cup where tart pomegranate acidity meets the deep, brown-sugar sweetness of panela. Its high-altitude origin provides a remarkable terroir-driven clarity that remains distinct even when paired with milk. The resulting tactile mouthfeel and uniform extraction make it a versatile addition to any espresso-focused ritual. Transform your morning extraction into a masterclass of balance.

Our Coffee Addicts Promise
We’re passionate about fresh, flavourful coffee and we know you are too. For the best taste, enjoy your coffee within approximately 6 weeks of the roast date.
Coffee naturally oxidizes slowly over time, but it can still be enjoyed beyond this window. Any beans older than six weeks from roast are clearly marked and automatically discounted, giving you a great value on quality coffee.
