Prepare for an enchanting coffee journey with this exceptional lot. The aroma beckons with the delicate embrace of pink grapefruit and chocolate, reminiscent of a summer's day. As you take your first sip, you'll be transported to a world of decadence, where the flavors of raspberry, plum, lime, and cacao come together in perfect harmony, caressing your palate with a velvety smooth mouthfeel.The grand finale is equally captivating, as the coffee unveils a lingering aftertaste, reminiscent of black currant and milk chocolate. Each sip is a symphony of beauty and flavor, a testament to the artistry that lies within each bean. This coffee project is centered in the village of Gaitania where Emmanuel is a coffee grower raised by coffee grower parents, who taught him everything about coffee. In 2006 he had the opportunity to learn much more about processes, quality, and varieties; managing to focus his farm and several producers in the zone on producing specialty coffees, but he had a problem in common with the other coffee growers, they did not have the capacity to produce large quantities, because they did not have a central processing center for quality processes. That is why in 2016 he began with his family to create a coffee processing center that became a strategic bridge between more than 15 villages in Gaitania and processing the coffees of coffee growers throughout the area. That’s how the Black Condor Project began to build and develop the drying stations to receive the coffee and process all together to ensure 2 things: quality and consistency. Paying always 30% above the market to the producers, Forest is working with 30-45 independent producers to make this Black Condor project sustainable and unique in the Tolima region.
