About Colombia Narino David Gomez microlot
Just arrived in mid October in grainpro. This is the first offering we have had from this producer.
In part because of the problems cited above and perhaps lack of opportunity, many young people leave the area and head to the cities. David, who works the farm with his wife, provides a beacon of hope and persistence in not only growing coffee in the highlands of Narino, but trying to produce coffee of top quality such as this lot. This washed coffee was fermented in tanks for 48 hours and after final cleansing, was dried on patios. As noted in the photo, David also has covered patios where coffee is protected from rain and can dry a bit more slowly.
