What Wood St Coffee says about this coffee
REGION: Aponte, Narino
PROCESS: Honey
VARIETIES: Caturra
ALTITUDE: 1700-2100 MASL
NOTES: Grapefruit, red apple, honey - bright & syrupy
We couldn't be happier to sneak in another hit of Aponte before the year is out. Produced by indigenous smallholders in Narino, this honey processed caturra is fruit forward and syrupy sweet. We're tasting grapefruit like acidity, sweet red apple with a honey, sticky texture. Good body, well balanced- it's an everyday banger. Like our recently finished banger Volcanes from Guatemala, the idea with Aponte is to make just as good an espresso as filter. It provides a great counterpoint to our House from Brazil- a little fruitier and more complex, but still a perfect daily driver.
The Aponte indigenous reserve is located within Tablon de Gomez. They have their own language, politics, and rules. Only a couple of decades ago they were forced to grow illicit plants by the guerrillas and so it was a very dangerous area, almost impossible to access. Thankfully, they joined forces and decided to stop economic dependence on drug production and instead replanted traditional vegetables and coffee instead, marketing their own products of indigenous origin…

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
How it sits among coffee from Guatemala
Wood St Coffee describe this coffee as fruity, caramel and sweet, citrus. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Guatemala; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
citrus is unusual here — 24% of coffee from Guatemala are described that way.
