WHAT WE LOVE

It is common to coincide “great coffee” with Colombia. The growing region is able to export coffee year-round, carving its own signficantly delicious corner in the export supply chain. Who has never encountered Juan Valdez, or 100% Colombian Coffee, in the grocery store?

The El Tiple Excelso is emblematic of Specialty coffee from the Huila Department, having a brilliant capacity for the most fragrant sweetness that brewed coffee can offer. The Huila region— with its rich, volcanic soil—exports many award-winning coffees that encapsulate this globally beloved, caramelized and glowing citric flavor profile.

This is a coffee that can do pretty much anything, and lovers of Colombian beans are familiar with this undeniable performance. Truly, an espresso blend is not a necessity; a coffee like El Tiple Excelso can do the entire job on its own. For many, Colombian coffee is simultaneously their all-time favorite, as well as a reliable stand-by. The Excelso is special precisely for this reason.

Bright acidity, coupled with sugar complexity produces a light roast that is rewarded by a filtered brew, with layers of orange, maple, brown sugar, and agave .
Medium roasts are where the Excelso explodes aromatically and offers its full abundance as a coffee with heft of body.
Darker roast profiles maintain boldness of flavor, while adding undeniable pungency and tasteful dark chocolate tones.
With El Tiple Excelso, drinking coffee is an effulgent pleasure!
