About: Beatriz Vélez has taken out 4th place in the Colombia Cup of Excellence with her beautiful washed Geisha. Scoring 89.43 points this coffee is delicate with refined acidity and strong floral notes. You would be forgiven for thinking it was from Panama. Beatriz and her husband have been producing coffee for more than 50 years and are pioneers in the region. They also started a social project called “Los Niños del Café” (The Children of Coffee), a daycare where single mothers can take their children while they are working at the farm. For Beatriz, supporting her community and keeping close relationships is the most important thing. She looks forward to being able to keep working on her farm and doing what makes her happy.
