Share
Our Coffee of the Month for October 2024: Cunningham Colombia Mesa De Los Santos, a Limited Edition roast that offers a rich, complex profile from one of Colombia’s most esteemed estates. Sourced from the family-owned Café Mesa de los Santos in Santander, Colombia, this medium roast hits the sweet spot, just into the first crack, perfectly balancing caramel sweetness with vibrant fruit tones.
Expect tasting notes of cherry juice, lemon, caramel, herbal, and a touch of sweetness—a delightful combination brought to life from Bourbon beans grown at an altitude of 1600 meters in clay mineral-rich soil. These beans are full washed and sun-dried, allowing the natural flavors to shine through in every cup. The careful, artisanal process results in a coffee that is both smooth and lively, with a satisfying finish.
The story behind this coffee is just as remarkable as its taste. The La Mesa de Los Santos estate, founded in 1840 by Telmo J. Diaz and now managed by his grandson, Oswaldo Acevedo, has a deep heritage rooted in integrity and perfection. The estate operates a fair compensation program that pays wages well above the Colombian minimum salary, providing benefits like free healthcare, education stipends, disability insurance, and pensions for its hardworking campesinos. It's a coffee not only rich in flavor but also in history and ethical cultivation practices.
Indulge in this October limited-edition and savor the extraordinary journey behind each sip of Cunningham Colombia Mesa De Los Santos—crafted with passion, purpose, and perfection.
