COLOMBIA - LAS GALERAS NARIÑO

Colombian coffee Las Galeras Nariño is one of the countries finest varieties. This stunning lot has aromas of stone fruit and a sweet caramel finish. This coffee works very well in all brewing methods.

The region of Nariño is located in the south-west of Colombia on the equator. It features the iconic “Las Galeras" volcano. The coffee plants grow on the hillsides of the volcano. The moist and sunny conditions are perfect for the plants to thrive. The rich soil helps give these Colombian coffee beans unique flavours and aromas.

Ripe cherries are picked and pulped using a manual machine. Lastly, the pulp is then used as natural fertiliser for the coffee plants.  This practise helps the farms remain sustainable. Small-holders mainly run the coffee farms. Importantly, they manage their own wet-mills and use patios to dry out the coffee beans. They work hard to produce the finest coffee beans and upkeep their good name.
