Colombian Narino La Florida
This coffee is rich in flavors of toasted almond, dark chocolate and has a crisp citrus finish.
Because it is close to the equator, with latitudes close to 0, Café de Nariño receives a relatively constant number of sun light hours all year round. Both because of its location and because of its geographical accidents and craggy mountains, the region’s coffee plantations are subjected to average temperatures and particular daily temperature ranges that have a clear effect on the coffee’s flavor and aroma. These conditions give to this coffee its particular taste: highly acidic, medium bodied, with a pronounced aroma and a clean sweet flavor and the intrinsic mildness of Colombian coffee.
The La Florida is washed, fermented for 14 to 16 hours, and is dried on raised beds for 10 to 12 days.
