SPECIALTY COFFEE from COLOMBIA El Rubi
El Rubí is the union of a small group of producers in the rural area of the Planadas, in the region of Tolima, Colombia.
Together and with the support of Osito (our export partner in the area) they achieve better conditions for cultivation and processing of their coffee lots.
This translates into cup quality improvement and the economic remuneration for their work.
This is a success-example of the increasing trend towards the consumption of specialty coffee, which allows more and more producers to take steps to a more dignified life.
For this washed lot, the harvested ripe cherries are floated and classified, pulped and washed with water and left to dry on raised beds until 11% moisture is achieved in the bean.
