Context
Sourced from the rugged terrain of the Tolima department, the Colombia Saldaña Highlands represents the collective efforts of the Asprasar Cooperative. This lot is cultivated at elevations ranging from 1700 to 2000 meters above sea level, a range that often contributes to the development of complex acidity and dense bean structure. As a washed coffee, it undergoes a meticulous depulping and fermentation process designed to highlight the inherent characteristics of the terroir by removing the fruit flesh before drying.
Offered by Verve Coffee Roasters, this selection reflects the high standards of regional production in Colombia. While washed coffees are generally celebrated for their clean, vibrant profiles and distinct clarity, enthusiasts are encouraged to consult the flavor wheel to better identify the specific nuances present in this cup. By focusing on traditional processing techniques, the producers ensure a consistent expression of the high-altitude environment found within the Saldaña Highlands.
