Kolumbia La Villa

About This Coffee

This is a Geisha variety coffee from the La Villa farm in Huila, Colombia, specifically from San José de Isnos, Bella Vista region at 1700 meters altitude. Produced by Juan Darío Gómez, whose family has been cultivating this farm since 1965. The coffee undergoes a complex washed process with yeast anaerobic co-fermentation: cherries are fermented for 24 hours, then depulped, with the pulp fermented separately in a bioreactor with yeast for 72 hours. The beans are then co-fermented with the fermented pulp and water for another 72 hours before being dried on shaded tables. The coffee features flavor notes of jasmine, lemongrass, ginger, and green tea. It scored 87 points on the SCA scale and is roasted to a light level.

Bracia Ziółkowscy Palarnia Kawy

Brothers Włodek and Jarek Ziółkowski have been roasting coffee for fifteen years, turning their passion professional with the opening of their roastery in 2018 under the name Bracia Ziółkowscy Palarnia Kawy, and both hold SCA membership that underpins the technical rigor they bring to sourcing and profiling every batch. The brothers have won medals at the Polish Coffee Roasting Championships, recognition that placed them among the country's most accomplished roasters and validated an approach built on roasting only the freshest, highest grade specialty beans available. Beyond their own production Włodek and Jarek provide training and advice to other roasters and baristas across Poland, sharing the knowledge they have accumulated over a decade and a half of working with coffee, and their trade show booths have become a consistent draw at Polish coffee events. The roastery supplies cafes throughout Poland and offers a subscription service for home customers, publishing a Polish language blog on coffee facts and brewing tips that extends the educational mission beyond the roastery walls. Bracia Ziółkowscy represents the kind of family built, competition proven operation that has helped Poland develop one of Europe's most vibrant and rapidly maturing specialty coffee scenes.
