This is a house espresso coffee produced by smallholders of the San Lorenzo group in Caldas, Colombia. Grown at approximately 1700 meters altitude, the coffee is made from Colombia, Caturra, and Castillo varieties and processed using the fully washed method. The coffee offers a syrupy body with notes of dark chocolate, caramel, and plums, featuring a soft plum acidity. Sourced through Siruma Coffee and imported by Falcon Speciality.
Tereza and Jon founded Curve Coffee Roasters in early 2016 in Margate, Kent, after meeting while working at a small London roastery. Jon first encountered specialty coffee while working at a high end equipment store in Sweden and went on to become a head roaster. Tereza's focus lies in responsible sourcing, ethical marketing, and sustainability across the supply chain. The roastery started at the back of a Margate cafe and has grown to a team of 15 with a customer base extending across Kent, London, and beyond. Sourcing runs on direct partnerships, including with El Zapoteco Cafe in the Sierra Juarez of Oaxaca, Mexico, and the Colombian exporter Siruma. The preference is for showcasing individual coffee profiles rather than blending.
