Colombia 〉 Andrés Muñoz La Primavera

This coffee represents a lot of firsts for us. It is the first coffee we've offered from San Agustin, our first time partnering with Semilla Coffee, and a first coffee from the Monkaaba Project, a collectivist project founded by smallholders in and around San Agustin, Colombia. We loved the samples we received and jumped at the opportunity to showcase Andrés's output from his farm, La Primavera. 

We find Andrés's coffee to be well-balanced, possessing clarity, a light- to medium-body, dried apricot aroma, pleasing notes of salted caramel, and just a hint of acidity.
