Region: Sierra Nevada
The Sierra Nevada region area is one of the lower altitude growing regions in Colombia. Coffees grown here tend to be heavier and rounder, rather than and bright. The coffees grow on the Andean mountains which are extremely steep hill sides that could range from 50-80 degrees. This presents a challenge to the farmers. Harvest times are between September and December. The name Sierra Nevada means “snow-topped mountains”
Farm: Sol Naciente
This farm was created in 2008 with the goal of bringing together competing producers from the Sierra Nevada region. The producers come from two towns, Siberia and San Pedro which are located in Cienaga. The majority of the producers are victims of armed conflict and have only recently been able to reclaim their land thanks to a restitution program. Now that they have their land back, they have put it to good use by providing high-quality organic coffee for you to enjoy. Help support them, by trying their delicious Sierra Nevada single origin!
Our Coffee:
Colombian coffee beans are widely regarded as some of the finest in the world, but with its popularity comes the challenge of finding beans that not only stand up to this reputation, but offer something special, and that's just what our Colombian Sierra Nevada brings to your cup. Smooth nutty, brown sugar notes with a hint of smokey caramel.
