This coffee is a Caturra variety microlot produced by the ACC Association in the Cauca region of Colombia. Grown at altitudes between 1700 and 2100 meters, it undergoes a honey process where cherries are oxidized for 12 hours, de-pulped, and fermented for 36 hours before drying in a parabolic dryer. The flavor profile features a jammy body with notes of stewed apricot, cherry, and brown sugar. It is recommended for filter brewing methods such as V60, Aeropress, and cafetière.
Tereza and Jon founded Curve Coffee Roasters in early 2016 in Margate, Kent, after meeting while working at a small London roastery. Jon first encountered specialty coffee while working at a high end equipment store in Sweden and went on to become a head roaster. Tereza's focus lies in responsible sourcing, ethical marketing, and sustainability across the supply chain. The roastery started at the back of a Margate cafe and has grown to a team of 15 with a customer base extending across Kent, London, and beyond. Sourcing runs on direct partnerships, including with El Zapoteco Cafe in the Sierra Juarez of Oaxaca, Mexico, and the Colombian exporter Siruma. The preference is for showcasing individual coffee profiles rather than blending.
