This is a single origin coffee from the highlands of Cauca, Colombia, grown at 1,700 meters altitude. It is a fully washed blend of Caturra, Colombia and Typica varieties (Fair Trade from Origin). The coffee offers chocolate and sweet fruit flavor notes with good balance, lively acidity, a full body, and a lasting elegant, exceptionally smooth aftertaste.
Milly, a Colombian from a generation of coffee growers, founded Colombia Coffee Roasters in Oxford. The company sources 100 percent arabica from her family farm and neighboring high altitude farms in Colombia, maintaining direct relationships that guarantee both quality and fair conditions. Roasting happens in house on a Giesen roaster at their facility in Wheatley, just outside Oxford. The Covered Market location was voted Best Cafe in Oxford in 2022 by the Oxford Mail, and a second cafe in Summertown took second place in the same awards. The approach spans the full tree to cup chain: sourcing, roasting, and brewing, with multiple brew methods available in the cafes including syphon, V60, Chemex, and AeroPress.
