This coffee is a single-origin anaerobic natural from Acevedo, Huila, Colombia, grown at 1,670 meters altitude by producer Marlon Bolaños. The coffee is a mystery Ethiopian landrace variety. It undergoes a five-day anaerobic fermentation in sealed plastic tanks followed by two to three weeks of sun-drying on raised beds. The flavor profile is characterized by notes of stewed blueberry, black raspberry, and vanilla, offering a syrupy, creamy texture with a winey finish.
Color Coffee Roasters is the brainchild of Charlie Gundlach, who turned his backyard roasting obsession into a legit operation in Eagle, Colorado, back in 2016. They’re pretty geeky about the science, hence the name Color, which links specific tasting notes to actual colors in a spectrum. Yet, they keep the vibe super chill and approachable for everyone while hunting for that perfect sweet spot on their energy-efficient Loring roaster to let the natural terroir really pop. Plus, they’re big on sustainability and transparency, so you can feel good about drinking a cup that’s as kind to the planet as it is tasty.
