Colombia.

Colombia is the only major producing country with two harvests a year. The main crop (mitaca secondary to it) runs from October into January; a lighter flowering produces a second wave from April to June. This doubles our buying opportunities and lets us stock Colombian lots year-round.

Huila is the heart of modern Colombian specialty — not because the coffee is categorically better than Cauca or Nariño, but because the region's producers have embraced experimental processing earlier and more systematically.

The anaerobic naturals coming out of Huila's smaller farms since 2018 are, in our view, the most interesting category of coffee being made anywhere right now.
