This single origin coffee comes from the Huila region of Colombia, grown by smallholder farmers from Dulima at altitudes between 1500-2300 meters above sea level. The Huilan landscape is dominated by volcanoes and mountains, providing fertile soils and diverse ecosystems. The coffee is a blend of Castillo, Caturra, and Colombia varieties, processed using the washed method. It features a balanced acidity and sweetness with a strong body, making it suitable for both espresso and filter brewing. The flavor profile includes red berries, caramel, and chocolate notes.
Luckie Beans is a family run roastery in Galashiels, in the Scottish Borders, operated by Jamie and Esther McLuckie for over ten years. They roast from an 18th century building in the centre of town, using a roaster fitted with a manual valve on the burners for full control over each batch. The coffees have earned thirteen Great Taste Awards from the Guild of Fine Food. Their range includes single origins from across East Africa and Latin America, two house blends named after local streets, and both Swiss Water and sugarcane process decafs. The roastery opens to the public every Wednesday.
