Colombia Alta Gracia Geisha Natural FILTER

About this coffee

Finca Alta Gracia, Natalia's farm, is 1.5 hectares of stunning landscape in the Acevedo region of Huila, Colombia. This particular region is on the border of the amazon rainforest, and it is common to see big rolling clouds coming in over the mountains, providing ideal coffee growing conditions. Natalia has planted Gesha, Ombligon, and Caturra variety coffees here in addition to the traditional Colombian varieties. Her coffee is fermented for 60 hours, washed, and then dried for 15 days in parabolic dryers. Located in southwestern Colombia, Huila is nestled in-between the Central and Eastern ranges of the Andes, with the middle area called the Magdalena Valley. The variation in elevation results in Huila being one of the country's most unique and complex regions of coffee production. Its terroir, climate, and harvest cycles all contribute to the quality of coffee produced here. The most impressive quality behind the coffees coming out of Huila lies in the people producing them. While Huila accounts for nearly 20% of the country's production, 80% of coffee producers operate on less than three hectares.
