Colombia - Finca La Reserva
This coffee is truly stunning. The first time I tasted it, the delicate tea-like qualities brought me right back to memories of drinking Persian tea with my Dad. Enjoy this floral, sweet cup as the days get longer and warmer. I think this tastes best as a pour over (hot or iced!), but honestly, it will taste amazing however you make it. The work being done by Juan Felipe and all the folks at Finca La Reserva is truly incredible. I hope I did this coffee justice!
Next roast: 10/20

Finca La Reserva
In the department of Antioquia, Finca La Reserva sits atop the mountains at a dizzying 2000 meters above seal level. When Juan Felipe, La Reserva’s pioneering producer, came on board, he realized the potential of the the land.
In 2018, Juan Felipe began executing his long-term plan for the estate. By employing best practices in harvesting and innovation processing, he made La Reserva into a specialty coffee powerhouse.
However, La Reserva is not only about innovation in processing and award-winning cup profiles. Juan Felipe is particularly proud of his conservation efforts and finding the balance between high-quality production and caring for the farm’s 200 hectare’s of protected forests. The forest hosts thousands of native species and provides a sanctuary for endangered Andean bears.
