      About Colombia Luzmila Masabuel Finca El Totumo

      Arrived September 2024, new crop, in grainpro.

      We offered this coffee in a couple of prior seasons and it developed a number of followers who were disappointed when we ran out.  It is back now for this season.  A long time friend who imports coffee from Colombia had initially sent us a number of small lots for evaluation which we cupped along with many others arriving this time of year. This coffee made its way through several blind cupping rounds and we decided we would like to have some the small output for our customers and to give recognition to the woman who produced it with the help of her family.

      Luzmila, her husband Jhon Elver own and work their very small 4 hectare coffee farm, yet it is larger than the average local farm which has a mere 1.5 hectares. As such their family has more prominence than many of their neighbors. They have been growing coffee for almost 30 years, but have been part of local program to improve and promote their coffee for the past 4 years. This year they plan to invest the premiums they are receiving for this coffee in new marquesinas or drying beds, in order to dry more of their coffee right on their property near to their home, rather than in a more remote location where they can share drying with others.
