Christmas Coffe • Alonso Bustos • Colombia
Our high-end christmas coffee comes from the farm Finca El Mirador in the Huila region of Colombia. Producer Alonso Bustos is a second-generation coffee farmer and at El Mirador he decided to start focusing on specialty coffee in 2017. He was inspired by his children to make the transition, and amongst other changes he began planting more exotic varietals like Gesha and Tabi.
Tabi is a cross between Typica, Bourbon and Timor. It has good resistance to diseases and thrives at higher altitudes, making it a perfect varietal for the hills of Colombia. The name comes from the word "good" in the dialect of a local native tribe.
Alonso wants people to know the time and care he puts into his coffee, and that good coffee is a result of conscious effort. If he has his way, he'll be at his farm for the rest of his life, improving his coffee a little bit every day.
