Tasting Notes: Chocolate, Floral, Jasmine, Wine, Citric acid
This Java is a very rare variety in Colombia, and in this case, it is a coffee located facing the snowy mountain "El Ruiz" and is part of a micro-lot from El Vergel Estate. Planted in 2016 with a quantity of 9.200 plants, this micro lot has been one of the most exotic of the estate developing totally unique profiles.
Imagine a story whispered by the mists of the Colombian highlands, where a humble coffee bean, a bean from Java El Eden, dreamed of flight. It absorbed the sun's warmth and the earth's secrets, and in time, it learned to hum with a quiet energy. This is Humble Hum.
As it is brewed, the air fills with the deep, comforting scent of chocolate, a memory of the rich, dark soil from which it came. But there's a delicate spirit within, a chorus of floral notes and the intoxicating perfume of jasmine, like a hidden garden unfurling with the first light of dawn.
Then, the true song begins. A bold, wine-like richness emerges, a celebration of its journey through the clouds and rain. This is followed by a sprightly, bright finish—a sparkling, citric acidity that feels like the first, joyful hum of a hummingbird dancing through the flowers. Humble Hum is not just a coffee; it is a sip of a forgotten melody, a taste of nature's simple, exquisite whimsy.
Meet the Producers
Fast forward to 2016, and with a little guidance from coffee guru Miguel Jimenez, they planted specialty coffee varieties, setting the stage for some serious coffee greatness. Then, in a stroke of genius, they embraced natural coffee processes in 2018, tinkering with fermentation control like mad scientists in a lab. And let's not forget their claim to fame – the Koji fermentation process, a game-changer in the green coffee game!
Now, meet the dynamic trio behind the scenes: Martha Montenegro, along with her coffee-savvy partners Elias and Shady. Together, they're not just brewing coffee; they're brewing up a whole community revolution! Their mission? To blend tech magic with coffee passion and sprinkle a little extra joy into the lives of everyone at El Vergel Estate.
We roast on Mondays and ship on Tuesdays.
