Luz Helena Salazar is a coffee producer located in Quindio. She is married Jairo Arcila and they have two children together, Carlos and Felipe Arcila, who are the co-founders of Cofinet, an export/import business for their coffee.

Cherries were then exposed to 30 hours of underwater fermentation before being pulped. The parchment was then gently washed and dried in temperature-controlled conditions until the ideal moisture content was achieved.
This microlot comes from the Pink Bourbon varietal trees. This is a high cup score microlot, scoring an impressive 87 points! Tasting notes include raspberry, lemongrass and honey. -

Very nice coffee, bought 2 bags but should have bought more!
Alright, so I’m usually a Union coffee guy—grabbing it from Sainsbury’s because it’s decent enough to kickstart my day. Nothing special, just reliable. But then I got my hands on this Colombian coffee from Horsham Coffee Roaster, and I’m telling you, it’s completely rewired how I feel about my morning cup.
I’m a bit of a bean-grinding snob, always hunting down rare blends like Gesha because, let’s be real, life’s too short for average coffee. This Colombian batch is unreal. The second I tore open the bag, the smell hit me—vibrant, floral, with this juicy edge that practically bursts with fresh fruit. Brewed it in my AeroPress, and that first sip was like a ripe peach exploding, laced with a touch of jasmine and this smooth, clean finish that just hangs around perfectly. It’s not just a drink; it’s a moment.
Compared to my go-to Union, it’s like swapping a hatchback for a sports car—both work, but one’s a rush. Horsham’s pricier, no doubt, but paying a bit more for this kind of morning magic? Totally worth it. I’m already stressing about the day I scrape the bottom of this bag.
