colombia la celia regional - washed process

We taste orange and tropical fruit, with a limeade finish in this washed processed coffee from the Risaralda region of Colombia. This coffee certainly maintains the summer vibe that you hope will last just a bit longer. 

The Agrosolidaria Association, members of LaREB, in the La Celia municipality of Colombia consists of approximately 50 producers. The QC of this coffee is led by local producer, Anderson Castrillón, who is also the lead roaster and lead analyst for LaREB, the organization that helped connect us to various Colombian coffees in their network. The main goal for LaREB is to improve everyone’s competitiveness at the farm level. They focus on each farm and the potential for what they might achieve. It is important to them that farmers be paid the highest price possible for their green, but their main objectives focus on improving post-harvesting practices, establishing accounting and organizational systems, and implementing all-around sustainable production. Their desire to empower farmers in their network make them great partners to Bridge City as we seek to honor and value all people along the supply chain.
