Fair Trade Organic French Roast

Our Fair Trade Organic Colombian French Roast is a full-bodied coffee with rich caramelized sugars. The cup is low in acidity with a bold robust bittersweet finish. It brews a rich tasting cup of coffee without any of the charred or overly bitter tastes that some French Roasts are known to have.

The municipality of Inzá is nestled in the middle of the great Colombian Massif. A mountainous region where most of the mayor rivers of the country are born, including the Magdalena, the Cauca and the Patia river. Inza is surrounded by volcanoes, plus the altitude and climate of this region make it perfect for growing specialty coffee. Very small producers tend to their land and hold on to their traditions. Many of them have produced coffee with little or no chemicals for generations. The Pillimue Family, crucial members of the community, led a program to certify 80 producers in organic practices. This small group of producers have become leaders in innovative organic practices, leading workshops in the community in order to re-use a lot of the waste created by the farm and to make bio fertilizers that are cheap and useful.
