Spotlight on Tolima Grande
Our Tolima Grande organic coffee was chosen by none other than Raymond Blanc OBE to be served at his double Michelin-starred restaurant and hotel, Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons.
And now you can enjoy this delicious Grand Cru coffee in your home!
This coffee is produced by a small number of farmers in Planadas and Neiva in the Tolima department, Colombia. The farms participate in the ’Tolima Grande Organic’ program, which is designed to promote more sustainable coffee farming through various organic practices. Diverse agricultural training sessions equip farmers with the skills and knowledge to produce exceptional organic coffees, maximising their land's potential by managing it effectively.
Once harvested, the coffee cherries are de-pulped and fermented under anaerobic conditions for 60 hours. The beans are then washed to remove any remaining mucilage, then placed on concrete patios to sun-dry for 8 days. By controlling the fermentation and drying processes meticulously, the coffee achieves exceptional quality and unique flavour profiles.
