Leonela Rivera Grocery Case

It sits very near the top of a verdant mountain on the eastern slopes of the Cordillera Central, just over the border from Cauca. The nearest town is Nátaga. It isn't a common place to source coffee, and not just because you can only reach her farm by a steep and rocky footpath. Our green buyer met Leonela in October of 2019, and tasted some of her coffee, pan-roasted, and brewed onsite. It was so delicious, and Leonela so charming, that Cassie and Kyle Ramage (of Black & White Roasters) decided then and there to split whatever lot she could get to our importing partner. That was the first-ever single farm lot from Nátaga on Osito’s books, and we are really honored to bring even more of Leonela's harvest to you this
