From the Inza Cauca region, our Colombian green beans produce a coffee with a clean, rich taste. The classic Central American coffee, Colombian has one of the most enticing aromas when freshly roasted. One of the most popular gourmet coffees, and very versatile for the roaster, as it makes an excellent light or dark (French roast) style of coffee.
We sell the Excelso grade of Colombian, this is a slightly smaller bean than Supremo, but offers all the flavor of Supremo at a better price (Excelso and Supremo beans usually are grown on the same tree, but then sorted by size). 2 pound bag.

Q: How is your coffee sourced?
A: Colombian Excelso is from importer Atlantic Specialty Company
Really really good.
This Colombian excelso is a fine coffee with plenty of flavor and not too much bitterness. I often have to blend different styles of coffee to get one that I really like, but this one stands out all by itself!
Tasty
While I can't rate this a 5/5, I've been enjoying this coffee. I get a very strong acetic odor later in the roast, a clear sign of caramelization. Has been easy to roast pretty well for me.
One of my favorites.
I received this with my purchase of a Behmor. I've gotten so caught up in trying different types of coffee from so many different regions and process types, I underestimated this Colombian. I roasted it medium dark. 17% weight loss and 25% development finished right at the start of second crack. Taste some nice caramel tones, very smooth. Taste what most average coffee drinkers expect coffee to taste like. I personally enjoy a bit of a lighter roast at about 15% weight loss, but this I wanted to take a little farther which I'm glad I did. Liked it best as espresso and with my V60 with authentic Hario paper filters (believe it or not I can tell the difference).
