Soma Coffee - COLOMBIA - FINCA LAS DELICIAS
€6.99
Soma Coffee It all started when a love of coffee and a desire to bring high grade speciality coffee to Cork was at the forefront of our minds.
We started with a humble coffee machine serving up delectable brews to the ever-growing coffee curious public. With their support, we went on to expand our operation and purchased a Giesen 6kg small batch coffee roaster. This enabled us to source green coffees from some of the most progressive producers around the globe, roast these to perfection and serve them (in style) to the public of Cork City. And all this happened under one roof at 23 Tuckey St, Cork City, Ireland.
We were equal parts curious and excited when we heard that one of our suppliers was bringing in a natural Colombian... And it did not disappoint!
This coffee was produced by Yesid Costañeda at a farm known as Finca Las Delicias. I'm sure you can guess where the farm got its name from - and it is a rightly deserved title too. Yesid is not one to shy away from a challenge when it comes to producing quality coffee. His farm is located on a remote mountainside at 2000 masl. Living at this altitude has its challenges, but the resulting quality from the coffee produced is some of the most exceptional in Colombia. For context, most Colombian farms are between 1200 and 1800 masl. This high altitude, combined with Yesid's expertise, and rich volcanic soil, has provided a near-perfect environment for specialty coffee to be grown.
In the cup, this coffee is an absolute fruitcake! The first thing you'll taste in this coffee is a concoction of stewed fruit - perfect for those winter mornings. Think dried cranberries, raisins and sultanas - get the picture? That slowly gives way to this big boozy body that's got a sweet red wine note to it. Lastly, on the finish, there is just a lingering of tropical fruit, not enough to make this coffee a tropical fruit bomb, but enough to make you think "mmmm, that's interesting!". Enjoy this spectacular coffee in all brew methods
