Colombia Cauca - Light Roast Arara, Whole Beans
This is our second offering from this farm, and this time we're bring our first Arara - a hybrid of Yellow Catuai and Obata varieties. It is a natural cross that came from Brazil and is known for high productivity and resistance to leaf rust and drought. Finca Juan Martin, operated by Banexport, is a hub of innovation and experimentation in coffee cultivation, located in the highlands of Sotara near Cauca's capital, Popayan. With a focus on developing optimal practices for each coffee variety, the farm also serves as a model for other producers, emphasizing environmentally-conscious practices and community engagement. From soil conservation on its steep slopes to meticulous cultivation, harvesting, and processing tailored to each variety's specific needs, Juan Martin is dedicated to quality, sustainability, and education.
