Tasting notes

Character

• Bold
• Comforting

Over generations, the family Montano has perfected their coffee crop – with each member working together as a tight-knit group to grow and process this excellent offering. This coffee is sweet and balanced with notes of fruit and cinnamon. This particular lot, Proyecto Recolectores, is named for the Azahar Project Manos Al Grano, their non-profit that legally employs coffee pickers – a rarity in many coffee growing regions. By providing legal wages, they help to move the industry forward – creating stability and sustainability throughout many aspects of the coffee supply chain. In the 1930s, José Montano started growing coffee in the Huila region of Colombia.
