How it sits among coffee from Colombia
Ouseburn Coffee Co. describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, citrus. 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.

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.
