This coffee is a Caturra variety grown by Edwin Noreña at Finca Campo Hermoso in the Circasia Municipality, Quindío Department, Colombia, at an altitude of 1650 meters. It undergoes a unique Banana-Mossto fermented red honey process and is greenhouse dried on raised beds. The cup profile is complex, featuring notes of fresh banana, banana bread, clove, and sorghum sweetness, with potential hints of anise and spearmint in the finish.
Nick and Charlie started S&W Craft Roasting as avid home roasters and built it into a focused, direct to consumer operation based in Coatesville, Indiana. The roastery is veteran owned and runs exclusively online with no brick and mortar retail, keeping the emphasis squarely on the coffee itself. All production goes through a refurbished 1993 Sasa Samiac drum roaster fitted with Agtron color control systems for precise, repeatable results. The catalog runs deep, with roughly 99 single origin varieties sourced from Ethiopia, India, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Colombia, China, and beyond. Their roasting philosophy prioritizes origin character over roast imprint, with no artificial flavorings, preservatives, or additives.
