This coffee is a Bourbon variety from the La Reserva farm in the Huila region of Colombia, grown at an altitude of 1650 to 1750 meters. It undergoes a semi-washed process with a unique passion fruit co-fermentation, involving 48 hours of anaerobic fermentation in sealed tanks. The resulting cup features a complex flavor profile with notes of floral, lavender, lemon cheesecake, citric acid, orange, and tangerine. This specialty coffee is produced by Marlon Rojas, a third-generation farmer dedicated to high-quality production standards.
Founded by Curtis Zimmerman, a former international bicycle racer who discovered Nordic coffee culture during his travels through Europe, Presta Coffee emerged in 2012 with a coffee cart before establishing itself as a roastery in 2014. Operating using a 15kg Joper Roaster with the belief that "coffee is meant to be shared," Presta has served Tucson for over a decade with a philosophy rooted in integrity and passion.
