Huila is also an Excelso coffee bean with a screen size of 15-16. This coffee bean is a classic Colombian; classic, but slightly lighter bodied when compared to the Bucaramanga (heavier) and the Popayan (heaviest). Look for chocolate flowers dancing on your taste buds - now isn't that a pretty picture?
This variety has been described as "a Kenyan that moved to Colombia," having great balance, and yet is rich, nutty and sweet; the longer it sat in the cup the sweeter it got. Milder and lighter than the other Colombians, it is a nice cup of coffee for watching the sun go down, or with a fine, light dessert after dinner. This coffee has matured since the last cupping, several years ago. The floral notes are more pronounced and the sweetness has mellowed. There is an "oak aged" quality comparable to the balance found in whiskeys and wines with that label. Enjoy.
