Tolima – An Iconic Colombian Coffee-Growing Region
The beans come from Finca La Roma, located in Planadas, in the Tolima department. This mountainous region in southern Colombia is now recognised as one of the country's finest specialty coffee origins, thanks to its high altitude, favourable climate and exceptional terroir.
Once heavily affected by armed conflict, Tolima is now enjoying a remarkable revival, driven by passionate coffee producers who are showcasing the full potential of their region through elegant, refined and flavour-rich coffees.
The Black Condor Project – A Responsible Supply Chain
This coffee is part of the Black Condor Project, launched in 2019 by Emmanuel, a third-generation coffee grower, in partnership with Forest Coffee. Today, the initiative supports around fifteen coffee-producing villages near Gaitania with a clear mission: to sustainably improve coffee quality while ensuring fairer remuneration for producers.
Coffee growers receive expert technical support covering fermentation, drying, cupping and high-quality production methods. Thanks to this collaborative approach, these coffees can achieve prices of up to 30% above the conventional market rate, actively contributing to the economic development of this Colombian region.
A Varietal Blend Enhanced By a Washed Process
La Esperanza Organic brings together the Caturra and Castillo varieties. Caturra contributes elegance, sweetness and aromatic complexity, while Castillo provides greater structure in the cup and more consistent production thanks to its natural disease resistance.
Following an entirely hand-picked harvest, only perfectly ripe coffee cherries are selected. The beans are depulped before fermenting with their mucilage for around twenty-four hours, then carefully washed. Drying on patios for 15 to 25 days gradually stabilises the beans while revealing the full purity of the terroir. This washed process produces a clean, indulgent and beautifully balanced cup, distinguished by its smooth sweetness and notes of caramel, panela and red berries.

Lugat
The type of roast will affect the balance of flavours (bitterness, acidity, sweetness, etc.) and reveal the aromas of the terroir to a greater or lesser extent.
The more the coffee is roasted the more its colour will change (from light to dark). The darker the roast, the more the aromatic notes are lost in favour of the roasting notes.
All our coffees have been placed in a colorimeter by our experts in order to compare the roast intensity.
The aromatic groups describe the tasting notes of your cup (hazelnut, chocolate, peach, white flowers, etc.).
If you don't know what your coffee profile is yet, we advise you to start with the most appreciated aromatic groups: rich & sweet or woody.
Please Note: this is not a flavoured coffee but aromatic notes noticed upon tasting.
The dominant aromatic group represents the most perceptible notes and the secondary group, the more subtle notes present in the cup.
Traditional Coffees (classic and superior) are the most common in the various distribution channels.
Specialty Coffees (rated 80-100) are among the best coffees in the world and represent less than 10% of world production. These are flawless coffees that offer unique tasting notes from one terroir (or even plot) to another.
Attributed by “Q Graders”, a coffee's /100 score is determined by the quality of the beans and the result in the cup. It is advisable to progressively move towards coffees with higher scores.
