What Kaffi says about this coffee
Alirio is a third generation farmer who bought his farm, Finca El Recreo, when he was just 15 years old. Today he's been producing coffee for more than 30 years, and he's doing better than ever!
We've bought his coffee before and it was absolutely delicious. This lot is of the coffee variety caturron.

Caturron is a relatively new find from the Acevedo region, and it's not really found outside of that region. Its genetic lineage is currently unknown, but the variety is gaining recognition for its distinctive flavor and large cherry.

How it sits among coffee from Colombia
Kaffi describe this coffee as fruity. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Colombia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Colombia, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

A further 5 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
