Details
The Las Hermosas farmer relationship project started in 2004 when we discovered an exceptional Colombian coffee from a farming co-operative in the South Tolima region. In an effort to give back to this community, we donate funds each year to support projects that improve the local standard of living.

To date, we have supported numerous projects:

• construction of parabolic drying beds for 200 small family farms to improve quality;
• a cupping lab in Ibague with the equipment required for coffee quality analysis;
• a complete overhaul of sanitation and water purification systems for seven schools in the region;
• set-up of multiple computer labs within schools in the region for business and educational use.

Better social and economic conditions also create an environment where premium quality production is possible. As evidence of this, farmers from the Las Hermosas co-operative placed 1st, 3rd and 7th in Colombia’s Cup of Excellence competition.

Thanks to our customers, we have been able to donate tens of thousands of dollars back to this small farming co-operative that supplies us with the best Colombian coffee in the world.

Delicious and Rich March 14, 2012
Reviewer: Robyn Hill from Vancouver, BC Canada  
The second type of bean I have tried from Reunion Island. I experimented with the strength of the coffee and admittedly, even when I made it too strong (for my taste) it still wasn't bitter. My ideal brew was 2 tablespoons of whole bean per intended number of 8oz cups. Another lovely bean, I will certainly be ordering again.

February coffee February 13, 2012
Reviewer: Michael Maurice from Bronte, Ontario  
I brew the Colombia Las Hermosas in two different ways.  My wife has coffee in the morning.  I add the beans to my Spong No. 1 coffee mill and set the grind to fine.  Four soup spoons of ground coffee, slightly rounded, are added to the filter basket of the drip machine.  It makes two 240 mL mugs of a tasty, mild drink.
For myself, I change the setting to a course grind and add four slightly rounded soup spoons of the grounds to a French press.    150 mL is then poured into a ceramic cup along with about 50 mL of milk.  This also makes two cups of a delicious, mild coffee drink.

luxury medium November 25, 2011
Reviewer: Anne Ellis from North York, ON Canada  
This is labeled as a medium coffee, I usually prefer bold but this had a rich taste. I found I was drinking it black instead of adding cream. So it seemed luxurious, while reducing my fat intake!
Definitely one to buy again.

BON October 8, 2011
Reviewer: Anik Pelletier from Grandes-Piles, QC Canada  
IL est bien. Sa saveur un peu amer m'a dérangée. Je ne recommanderai plus.
