SAN AGUSTIN

thanks to fertile soil, mild tropical climate, dependable rainfall, and cool mountain altitudes.  Luckily for coffee lovers, some of Colombia's coffee lands are still planted to traditional coffee varieties and some growers still take the time to produce the old-style quality.

San Agustin is one such coffee.  Produced in the south-central district of Huila, exclusively on Arabica typica variety plantings, it is grown under shade at high altitude, picked by hand, and 100% sun dried.  All of these factors help to promote the patient maturation of the coffee cherry and its seed, and build flavour character.

The reward is a perfect cup.  I think you'll agree the first sip of San Agustin reveals a startling intensity of flavour, richness conveyed in full body, rounded out with caramel sweetness.  It is remarkable to find such primal flavours so swathed in balance, without a trace of bitterness.  San Agustin is a coffee for sunny mornings on the terrace, as we take time to contemplate the perfect beauty of a midsummer day.
