This year's holiday coffees are sourced from two of our favourite producing partners in Colombia. We have roasted both to bring out festive and comforting flavour notes to celebrate the holidays.

  1. Holiday Single Origin Espresso:

This year’s Holiday Single Origin Espresso comes from Carlos Guamanga’s El Recuerdo farm in Colombia. Showcasing a fully washed Caturra lot, this coffee offers a honey-like sweetness, bright orange citrus, and notes of red apple that linger smoothly on the palate.

Roasted to a light-medium profile, it delivers a cup that’s both vibrant and comforting; a perfect reflection of the season’s warmth and celebration.

  1. Holiday Single Origin Filter: 

From the hills of Huila, Colombia, this exceptional Las Mercedes lot offers a delicate and balanced cup. Expect notes of pear, honey, and jasmine, with a soft sweetness and elegant floral finish.

Lightly roasted to highlight its natural clarity and brightness, this coffee captures the gentle warmth and joy of the holiday season — a perfect companion for slow winter mornings.

Context

The Holiday Single Origin Set from 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters highlights the distinct character of the Huila region in Colombia. Produced by Carlos Guamanga, this lot features the Caturra varietal, a plant widely recognized for its adaptability and consistent cup quality. By utilizing a washed process, the producer emphasizes the inherent clarity and brightness of the bean, allowing the delicate profile of honey, orange citrus, red apple, pear, and jasmine to shine through.

Washed coffees are often celebrated for their clean finish and vibrant acidity, which can help distinguish specific fruit and floral nuances. When evaluating these complex profiles, referencing a flavor wheel can be a helpful tool for identifying the subtle interplay between the citrus and orchard fruit notes present in this selection. This set offers a refined look at how traditional processing and careful cultivation contribute to a balanced, expressive cup.
