This single-origin coffee is produced by Néstor Lasso at the El Diviso estate in Pitalito, Huila, Colombia. Grown at an altitude of 1800 meters, this coffee features the Ombligón variety, a natural mutation identified in the region. The cherries are processed using the natural method, benefiting from the estate's high elevation and volcanic soil. This light roast is specifically recommended for filter brewing methods, offering a refined profile developed through precise agronomic practices and controlled drying.
