Melocoton

Last year we stumbled upon Las Garzas from a surprise selection of samples that eventually became our delightfully weird Balsamic Glaze and we've been eagerly awaiting this years' harvest since we said goodbye to that savoury goodness.

This year brings less savoury and way more elegance as evidenced by this fruity little number. Imagine if your favourite peach iced tea and coffee hooked up one late summer evening and this is probably the concoction you'd end up with.

Grown by a collection of smallholder farmers in Planadas, Tolima an area of Colombia well known for producing high quality specialty coffee as evidenced by the over 6,000 active farms in the region. Rich and fertile volcanic soils are home to a wide biodiversity of natural rainforest flora and contribute to the excellent growing conditions found at altitudes between 1,700 to 2,000masl. This field blend of Castillo, Caturra and Colombia varietal lots is an impressive example of the quality found in the region and supports local efforts to lower the impact of deforestation and move towards more environmentally sustainable coffee production.
