Wild Heart: Colombia Huila Aponte

Dare to delight in Wild Heart, a decadent honey processed coffee from Colombia. Half washed and half natural, this unique style imparts complexities renowned for their naturally sweet qualities. The fruit of the coffee cherry is partially left to cure with the seed, giving it a natural wild berry flavor. Milk chocolate rounds out the tangy sugars, making this a balanced yet luxurious brew.  

Deep in the Andean jungles of the Huila region that borders the lush Amazon rainforest grows Wild Heart. The flavors of this meticulously crafted coffee are as rich as the diversity of life with which it thrives. The story of the area and its people is about endurance and devotion to life. Despite a history of tragedies, most recently a wave of earthquakes, farms like Aponte rise above to produce superior specialty coffees and rebuild their communities in doing so. 

Descendants of the pre-hispanic ancient Incas, the Inga people here have found prosperity with the coffee plant. The Caturra variety is mostly found in the Inga territory on smallholder properties at an average of 2150 meters above sea level. This elevation, combined with the Galeras Volcano constantly shedding nutrient-rich ash, makes for an exquisite and premier coffee. Experience its subtilties as a classic doppio espresso or start your day with a dynamic pour-over. Is your mouth watering yet?
