Coffee Details

Origin: Huila

Altitude: 1900 MASL

Varietal: Caturra, Colombia

Process: Washed

A land of extremes, Colombia boasts a range in geography from snow-capped mountain tops to dense forests that make up the entire southern half of the country.

Colombian coffee often shares a medium body, bright acidity, sweet cocoa aroma and notes of fruit and citrus.

From the Huila region of Colombia, this washed Caturra offers a profile centered on savory and butterscotch notes—a balance that reflects both the varietal's inherent character and the region's terroir at 1900 meters. Huila is known for producing coffees with distinct sweetness and body, while the washed processing method typically emphasizes cleaner acidity and fruit-forward qualities. Cuvee Coffee has highlighted the more understated, rich elements here—the butterscotch sweetness paired with savory complexity creates a coffee suited for drinkers seeking depth beyond bright acidity. This lot demonstrates how regional and processing choices shape flavor expression.
