Los Osos

19grams

Roaster: Garreth Druce

Fruity and well-structured coffee with medium acidity and medium sweetness. The mouthfeel is refined, with a clean aftertaste. Los Osos is a tribute to the restoration and protection of biodiversity in Santa Maria, Huila, particularly in the surrounding “buffer” area near the National Park Nevados de Huila. Named after the endangered Spectacled Bear, also known as the “Andean Bear,” this lot symbolizes the region’s unique wildlife. The Coffee Quest Colombia has been working with local organizations to raise awareness among coffee farmers about conservation and sustainable practices. Preserving the habitat of these wild and endangered species, such as the Andean Bars, will indirectly protect other species in the area. Santa Maria, nestled in the mountainous region of Northern Huila, has overcome a troubled past marked by isolation and conflicts. The farmers here demonstrate unwavering dedication to their craft, inspiring us to find a fitting market for their coffee. Now, they have the opportunity to invest in their future and think long-term, and we are proud to support their journey.
