Bean Grading
“Excelso” is the common grading term for exportable coffee from Colombia – it is not related to the varietal or to the cupping profile.
Colombian coffee is graded according to bean size: Supremo and Excelso beans are harvested from the same coffee trees, but they are sorted by size. Excelso coffee beans are large, but slightly smaller than Supremo coffee beans with a 15/16 screen size compared to 17/18 for Supremo Excelso accounts for the greatest volume of coffee exported from Colombia
we love this bean its clean simple and it just works on multiple roast profiles
Floral aroma with notes of red candied fruits,
on a bed of chocolate. Rich and full smooth body with a slight winey aftertaste. makes a terrific espresso and a great long black
Background
Simone Borges met Luiz Carlos when she worked as a coffee picker. They got married years
later and she is proud to say she was the one who planted the very first coffee tree on their small farm. They now have 2 kids, and they all work together at the farm.
Mrs Borges has always been searching for new ways to improve quality with a focus on organic farming.
In 2019 she worked hard to produce her own micro-lot. Alone, she took care of all stages from picking to processing. Her coffee stands out by having
a fruity and sweet profile, full body and balanced acidity.
full to heavy body notes of cocoa / caramel berries, some spice orange/mandarin, dried fruit and
honey sweetness nice aftertaste
about the producer
tthis delicious coffee is produced by small farm holders from Tablón de Gomez in Nariño located at 1950 m.a.s.l in the department of Narino which is located in Southwest Colombia, bordering Ecuador. Coffee in Nariño is grown at elevations that reach 2,200 metres . This region is characterized by its very mountainous topography and its cold climate which is perfect for slow cherry maturation that leads to a sweeter and more complex cup. We work with farmers that we work with belong to the Terra association and Cafes Especiales de Nariño Cooperative.
