About the Bean:

Found in a plateau in the Colombian Massif, Popayan sits at a staggering altitude in picturesque surroundings.   These surrounds are full of beautiful undulating slopes, where coffee is cultivated.

This lot from Popayan contains rich and complex caramel and chocolate notes and the subtle fruitiness of stone fruit.  A classic favour profile, and an essential addition to a blend that is intended to be enjoyed with milk.
