Regional Huila

01 · Overview

Sourced from family-owned farms across Colombia's renowned Huila region, this washed coffee is beautifully balanced, combining caramel sweetness with gentle citrus brightness and a smooth nutty finish.

Carefully harvested and processed using traditional washed methods, it produces a clean, versatile cup that's equally enjoyable as espresso or filter.

02 · Origin

Huila is one of Colombia's most respected coffee-growing regions. Its high elevations, volcanic soils and consistent climate create ideal conditions for producing coffees with excellent sweetness, clarity and balance.

This lot comes from multiple smallholder producers, each contributing carefully grown coffee that reflects the character of the region.

03 · About the Producers

This coffee is produced by dedicated smallholder farmers who own and manage their own family farms. Harvesting is carried out by hand, with only fully ripe cherries selected to ensure quality and consistency.

Processing takes place on the farms themselves using traditional methods passed down through generations. Every stage, from harvesting through washing and drying, is completed with care to preserve the coffee's natural sweetness and regional character.

By combining lots from several experienced producers, this coffee offers both consistency and a true representation of Huila's distinctive profile.

04 · Processing

The cherries are depulped on the day they are harvested before undergoing fermentation for between 12 and 36 hours. This process gently removes the remaining mucilage while developing sweetness and complexity.

Following fermentation, the beans are thoroughly washed with clean water before being dried on raised beds or patios until they reach an ideal moisture level of around 10–11%.

The result is a clean, vibrant coffee with excellent clarity and balance.

07 · From the Roaster

This is exactly the kind of Colombian coffee I enjoy having in the range. It's approachable enough for someone just discovering specialty coffee, yet still offers plenty of complexity for experienced drinkers.

My aim when roasting is to highlight its natural sweetness first, allowing the caramel and hazelnut to shine while keeping the gentle citrus freshness that makes Huila coffees so enjoyable. It's the sort of coffee I could happily drink every day.
