Unmistakably Colombian. A tantalisingly rich aroma with a hint of nuts. Complex flavours creating a smooth, full-bodied coffee with attractive citrus notes on the finish.
Strength: 3
Adventure in Colombia:
As you approach Bogota from 30, 000ft up you'll notice that Colombia sits at the gateway to South America. Colombia is a land of extremes; from Cartagena to Bogota the coffee adventurer will experience a real diversity of culture & beauty.
For a start, it has opposing Atlantic & Pacific coasts
- & it seems like the weather regularly tries to empty these two oceans over the rainforests. Which must be good for the plants (and arabica coffee)
- Colombia has over 130, 000 species, including Victoria Amazonica
- a giant water lily with pads that can support the weight of anything from a poisoned dart frog to a small child.
Bogota is fast & elegant, a heady mix of futuristic architecture, colonial style, & hot-blooded everything. This is the capital of coffee & it runs in the veins of the people.
Bogotanians are not renowned for their quality of sleep so you might not get chance to unpack your pyjamas!
