Colombia Dark

Roger’s Coffee

Roaster: Roger Snellman

Colombia Dark is roasted from excellent coffee grown by several independent coffee farmers, delivering and selling their product to Racafe Mill. When ripe, the coffee cherries are picked and go through an initial flotation sorting to remove underripes, sticks, and general debris before passing through a pulping machine and working their way down the washing channels to the fermentation tanks. Typically in Colombia, this is carried out on the farm, with processed cherries then being taken to a dry mill for careful grading, tasting, and blending. The coffee is stored in parchment until ready for export, when it is hulled at the dry mill and bagged for shipping. The effects of climate change are evident in Colombia, with challenges in some areas and opportunities in others. Earthquakes and landslides have been observed in coffee-growing areas, but quality is not compromised.
