About This Coffee

This coffee is produced by Oscar Restrepo at Finca La Divisa in Apia, Risaralda, Colombia at 1,800 meters altitude. It is a Geisha variety processed using the natural method. The cherries are collected and rested in sacks for 12 hours, then floated in water to select quality cherries and stabilize temperature. They are dried on drying beds for 20-25 days depending on weather. The seed with parchment is placed in hermetic bags for 30 days to stabilize and rest, allowing flavors to develop better after roasting. This coffee has earned multiple regional and national awards and has been featured in the Colombian National Barista Competition. Flavor notes include sweet mandarin, sugar cane, and ripe fruit.

La Clara Coffee Roasters

Three Colombians living in Sweden wanted to reconnect with home, and coffee was the way back. La Clara operates from Stallarholmen, a small community in Sodermanland County, roasting exclusively Colombian beans brought directly from farm to roastery. One of their primary sources is Oscar Restrepo's Finca La Divisa in the Apia and Risaralda region, growing the Castillo variety at 1,800 meters and processing it as red honey. The range demonstrates how different processing methods, natural, honey, and washed, transform the same variety from the same farm into distinctly different cups. La Clara opens only on Sundays, making it the sole specialty coffee experience in the area. The operation is a one person company with just over a thousand Instagram followers, but the mission is personal and precise: Colombian heart in Swedish cups.
