LEIDA - Colombia

Located in Pan de Azúcar, Garzón, this coffee comes from the La Esmeralda farm, where Javier Jiménez Lasso and his wife Leida Rocío produce more than 1,500 kg of exceptional coffee every year.

The farm is renowned for the remarkable quality and consistency of its produce throughout the harvests. Javier and Leida are committed to the development of their community through the local action committee, of which Javier is president. Their social and environmental commitment is reflected in their collaboration with Coocentral, a non-profit social cooperative that unites 4,000 small-scale producers in the department of Huila. The cooperative is dedicated to environmental protection and the support of small-scale producers through initiatives such as youth education, access to social security, and projects that empower women.

This coffee offers a fruity and complex aromatic profile, with a medium acidity that is suitable for both intense and slow brewing methods.

Prepared as an espresso, expect a rich and fruity cup, very well-balanced and with a lingering finish of mandarin notes. Brewed as a filter coffee, it will reveal fruity aromas and hints of brown sugar, with a very smooth texture.
