Colombia Cattleya Excelso is a washed coffee from the Cundinamarca and Boyacá regions, grown at 1400-2000 meters altitude by smallholder farmers. It features Castillo and Caturra varieties with a light roast profile. The cup offers lavender and hibiscus tones with malic acidity, suitable for both filter and espresso brewing where lavender and floral cumin notes emerge in the shot.
Nick and Charlie started S&W Craft Roasting as avid home roasters and built it into a focused, direct to consumer operation based in Coatesville, Indiana. The roastery is veteran owned and runs exclusively online with no brick and mortar retail, keeping the emphasis squarely on the coffee itself. All production goes through a refurbished 1993 Sasa Samiac drum roaster fitted with Agtron color control systems for precise, repeatable results. The catalog runs deep, with roughly 99 single origin varieties sourced from Ethiopia, India, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Colombia, China, and beyond. Their roasting philosophy prioritizes origin character over roast imprint, with no artificial flavorings, preservatives, or additives.
