Organic Colombia La Pradera Estate SMBC RFA

It has been a while since we were truly wowed by a Colombian coffee, until now. A beautiful, medium body with nice acidity compliment the sweet caramel, honey, and subtle, orange notes that make this coffee one we are so pleased to offer.  This coffee peaks at a medium, city+ roast.

La Pradera Estate is made up of large plantations of single-origin coffee near San Gil, Santander, a small Andean city in northern Colombia.  The estate is family owned, spanning three generations, and is managed by producer, Oscar Daza and his children, who have taken years to ensure outstanding quality with a dedicated focus on sustainability. Their dedication is reflected in certifications such as Organic, Rainforest Alliance, and a commitment to upholding the immense conservation efforts of the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center; in fact, all 350,000 trees on the estate are shade grown and organic.
