This single-origin coffee is produced by Huver Castillo at the El Paseo farm in the Buesaco region of Nariño, Colombia. Grown at an altitude of 1,800 meters, this Caturra variety undergoes a meticulous experimental washed process involving anaerobic fermentation and enzyme additions to enhance its floral characteristics. The resulting cup offers a complex flavor profile featuring notes of orange, citrus, lemongrass, coconut, cocoa, and coffee blossom, complemented by sweet aromatics.
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.
