Where is this coffee from in Colombia?

It comes from the Huila region, a well-known Colombian producing area with a strong reputation for bright, high-quality coffees.

Who produces this coffee and what is Asombombo?

This lot is produced by 15 female members of Asombombo (Grupo Asociativo El Bombo). The group was founded to improve market access and help members achieve fairer, more sustainable prices for their coffee.

Why is this called a women’s group coffee?

This lot is specifically attributed to women producers within the wider Asombombo membership, highlighting their contribution and leadership in cultivation and processing.

What varieties are used in this lot?

The lot is a blend of Castillo, Bourbon, Caturra, and Colombia varieties, which can combine resilience and consistency (like Castillo) with classic sweetness and cup character (like Bourbon and Caturra).

What altitude is the coffee grown at?

It’s grown at approximately 1,350 to 1,800 metres above sea level, which often supports good density and balanced sweetness in the cup.

How is Colombia El Bombo processed?

It’s fully washed. Producers typically pulp the cherry, ferment it (often 12–36 hours), wash it clean, then dry the parchment carefully on patios or in covered drying beds.

What does Organic certification mean here?

Organic certification indicates the coffee has been produced under Organic standards (including approved inputs and farming practices), with traceability and audit requirements across the supply chain.

What does this coffee taste like?

The tasting notes are roasted hazelnut, apple, dark chocolate, and caramel, giving a sweet, comforting profile with gentle fruit and a chocolatey finish.

What is the cupping score?

It’s listed with a cupping score of 80.5.

Which roast level tends to suit it best?

A light to medium roast usually keeps the apple note crisp while building caramel sweetness. A medium roast can emphasise dark chocolate and roasted hazelnut for a more classic, rounded profile.

What brew methods work well for this coffee?

Filter methods (V60, batch brew, AeroPress) tend to highlight the apple and sweetness. Espresso can pull out hazelnut, caramel, and dark chocolate, especially with a medium roast.

How should I store it to keep it tasting its best?

Store green coffee sealed, cool, dry, and away from sunlight and strong odours. Store roasted coffee at room temperature in an airtight bag or tin and use within a sensible timeframe for best flavour.

Coffee from Colombia

Colombia has been producing and exporting coffee renowned for their full body, bright acidity and rich aftertaste, since the early 19th century.

Colombia boasts a wide range of climates and geographic conditions that, in turn, produce their own unique flavors in coffee. This also means that harvest times can vary quite a bit. In fact, between all its different regions, Colombia produces fresh crop nearly all year round.

The increasing focus on the specialty industry is changing the way traders and farmers do business. It is becoming more common for farmers to isolate the highest quality beans in their lots to market separately. These higher-quality lots are often sold under specific brands or stories.

Besides its wide variety of cup profiles, Colombia has quickly expanded its certification options over the past 10 years. The most common certifications available are Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, UTZ and Organic.

Roast For You Service

When you choose to have your coffee roasted for you, we will roast the exact amount ordered and roast this for you to the selected roast profile you have chosen. Our small batch roasting process ensures that your coffee is roasted with care and precision, resulting in a high-quality, freshly roasted product.

Minimum Green Weight Requirement

Please be advised that the minimum green weight for roasting any one single origin is 6kg. Any orders placed with less than 6kg of each origin will be placed on hold and may cause delays in being dispatched. We will contact you to discuss how you wish to proceed in this case.

Weight Loss During Roasting

Please be mindful of the weight loss through moisture loss during roasting, which is typically between 12-20% depending on the level of roast. The darker the roast, the higher the moisture loss. This weight loss should be taken into account when ordering your coffee to ensure you receive the desired amount of roasted coffee.

Order Processing Time

Orders for roasted coffees will naturally take a little longer to process. Please allow a minimum of 3 days for your order to arrive from the point of order. If we are able to drop your order in the roasting schedule sooner, we will always endeavor to do so.

Mixed Orders

Mixed orders which include green and roasted coffees will be dispatched together when the roasted coffees are ready. We are unable to split these orders, so please consider the slightly longer delivery times when ordering mixed coffees.

Packaging

Your coffee will be bulk packed into a 6kg bulk bag with an identifying label on only. This packaging ensures that your coffee remains fresh and protected during transit.

Roast Profile and Liability

We will roast to your desired roast profile, but are unable to take any liability for any taste discrepancies that may arise from this. We are unable to take back any coffees once they have been roasted to your desired roast profile.

Yield Estimate

Typically, a medium roast coffee at 6kg green will yield 5.1kg of freshly roasted coffee. This estimate should be taken into account when ordering your coffee to ensure you receive the desired amount of roasted coffee.
