About

This tropical, punchy natural processed Caturra from Francy Castillo at Finca El Uberrimo in Nariño, Colombia, brings vibrant notes of passion fruit, cacao nibs, and sugar cookies. Francy's passion for coffee grew from her family farm, and after completing her agronomy degree, she has continued to deepen her expertise in coffee. We're grateful to Apex for connecting us with small-scale producers like Francy, allowing us to share her exceptional coffee with you.

Brew Method

Filter: 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio (e.g., 20g coffee to 320ml water), medium-coarse grind

Recommended Resting

To get the best out of our coffees we recommend resting them. We have found for espresso the optimal age is 10 - 21 days after the roast date and for filter brew methods we find our coffees start tasting best after 3-4 weeks after the roast!
