From SEY
This is our first year working with Héctor's coffee. Part of our ongoing project to explore the Chiroso variety, this lot comes specifically from Urrao. In the cup we find a bright tropical profile with melon and soft florals.
ABOUT HÉCTOR LONDOÑO
This is our first year buying coffee from Héctor Londoño. We have been building a project around the Chiroso variety in Urrao for a number of years, and each new season brings new producers into the fold. To date, this has been one of the most successful projects we have developed, and we look forward to seeing it continue to grow.
ABOUT CHIROSO
Chiroso is a new variety being grown primarily in the region of Antioquia, Colombia. We only started hearing about its cultivation a couple of years ago, but because of its cup quality potential it is beginning to spread. The variety has been genetically identified as an Ethiopian Landrace, but we unfortunately cannot get any more specific than that at this time. We have been working very hard building a buying program in the region of Urrao specifically around the variety of Chiroso. We still don't know where or how this variety came to be cultivated in this particular region, but its cup quality is extraordinary. We will be working with our exporting partner The Coffee Quest to continue developing this project, and hope that we will be able to bring you more of this special coffee from this special region year after year.
