About Various smallholder farmers of Colombia
Our Colombia component of Thaddeus comes from Algeciras, a small town in the north of Huila, and this coffee is a blend from a group of small producers that used to be members of the guerillas. The average size of the farms is 6 hectares, where they de-pulped and dry mill the coffee cherries to the parchment stage, which allows more control on the process that contributes to the result of an exceptional coffee.
Our Brazil Component Thaddeus is a Brazil 2/3 (also known as Santos 2/3) is a coffee grade that indicates that at least 75% of the coffee seeds are a screen size of 17–18, and the coffee has an allowance of 1% foreign defects in a 500-gram sample.
