Seasonal • Betania
This lovely Bourbon-Chiroso variety was grown by Linarco Rodríguez on his family farm, Betania, in Palestina, Huila, Colombia. The farm is operated by him and his six siblings, who inherited it from their parents and grandparents before them. Linarco is dedicated to experimenting with different processes and varietals to add more value to specialty coffee. This lot is a beautiful representation of the work that he’s done.
We purchased this coffee from Cumbres, a Colombian exporter and owner of six farms that excell in producing high-end specialty coffees. The farmgate price (the price/lb paid to the producer) that Cumbres paid the Rodríguez family is very respectable, and the markup that we paid to Cumbres was small, comforting us that Cumbres cares for their producers and keeping good coffee going.
