About This Coffee:

This coffee is one that we can’t seem to stay away from. Its profile is quintessential to the terroir of coffees of the Cauca region. High sweetness and medium acidity, citrus, bright fruit notes, caramel, and pronounced floral aromatics. 

It’s a great representation of Colombia coffee, and its versatility in standing alone or playing with others in blended offerings make it a stalwart in our lineup. There’s a reason we use this coffee for our year round blend, My Shout.

Partnership

  • Cofinet

    Helmed by Carlos & Felipe Arcila, Cofinet is a leader in producing excellent coffee in Colombia. On their farm and in their processing center (La Pradera), Cofinet highlights exotic varieties and processing methods, pushing the boundaries of coffee quality in Colombia. They aim for sustainable, ethical, and long lasting relationships between coffee growers, roasters, and consumers.

    They also partner with and support a large number of specialty coffee growers in Colombia.

Cofinet hopes to assist farmers in producing outstanding coffees that will guarantee a high premium for their hard work.

    Cofinet’s commitment to Colombia through coffee production draws us to work with them, and support the positive impact they have on their community.

  • Our Relationship

    The Popayán Reserve is one of Cofinet’s longest standing projects, with sourcing beginning in 2015. Cofinet invests in these producers by offering educational and practical resources. Such as sending a team to aid individual producers, or hosting cuppings open to the group to give valuable feedback and education.

    We’ve seen at Tenfold incredible consistency in this project, and will happily continue to support an initiative such as this year in and year out.
