A half-caff blend from Colombia combining a sugar cane decaf coffee with coffee from Inza, Cauca. The blend includes coffee from La Falda, Garzón in Huila and Inza, Cauca, grown at altitudes between 1,000 and 1,900 meters above sea level. The varieties include Caturra, Castillo, Colombia, and Typica. The coffee is washed processed. Smallholder farmers bring their production to dry at the farm of Jesús Volvera, who provides a drying facility to prevent damage from sporadic rains. Flavor notes include almond, raw cane sugar, hazelnut, and berries.
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.
