Las Moras

About This Coffee

Las Moras is a regional lot from Huila, Colombia, sourced from the high-altitude areas around Acevedo and Pitalito. This coffee is a blend of Caturra, Castillo, and Colombia varieties, processed using a dual fermentation method that includes both aerobic and anaerobic stages. The result is a coffee with notable density and a velvety texture. Flavor notes for the filter roast include mandarin, shortbread, and blossom honey, while the espresso roast offers notes of apple and butter crumble. It is characterized by its depth, fullness, and a long, intense finish.
