Sugar Magnolia | Small Producers of China Alta

SMALL PRODUCERS OF CHINA ALTA | COLOMBIA, TOLIMA | CO-OP

Probably one of my favourite coffees yet. I first had this coffee at Artificer in Surry Hills, so when I spotted it on the MCM offerings list I was pretty keen to jump on it. Like some of our other coffees, this one will be joining our yearly rotation at Recess.

This coffee comes from a group of small producers around China Alta, in Tolima, Colombia. The farms are small, family-run operations, with producers growing coffee high up in the mountains of the region.

It’s bright, juicy and floral, with a syrupy mouthfeel and a really lovely sweetness. We’ve roasted this one for filter, but it’s also pouring a bloody good flatty!

Pretty much my ideal type of coffee. Only downside? Probably didn’t secure enough.

11/10.
