We’ve been absolutely desperate to get this special Colombian coffee from Coborn on our shelves since trying it at London Coffee Festival. (Maybe too keen-sorry Coborn).

Coborn Coffee’s priority is buying from women owned or majority women grown farms, which naturally excludes a lot of highly regarded farms. So, when they heard about the influence Angie Hernandez was having on Finca Los Nogales they had to pick up some of her crop. Angie operates Los Nogales alongside her brother and sister Oscar and Olga, but it’s Angie who brings a microbial science side to coffee cultivation and processing. The results of her work are complex and exciting lots like this washed one, which undergoes fermentation with preferments and natural sugars from the bean shells.

This cup has plenty of clarity of flavour with juicy notes of Haribo Strawbs sweets, blueberry and lime that smack you round the face both in taste and aroma. Definitely not your traditional coffee, this is one to sit with and enjoy the innovation in the specialty coffee industry.
