The Story Behind
Planadas
"
"This coffee comes from the mountainous region of Planadas, Tolima, where high altitudes, volcanic soils, and a favorable climate create ideal conditions for producing exceptional coffee. Sourced from local farming associations, this lot represents the work of coffee-growing families who have helped transform the region through agriculture and community development. Carefully selected cherries are washed and dried on raised beds before undergoing strict quality control, resulting in a clean, sweet, and balanced cup that reflects the unique character of Planadas."
