About coffee from Colombia
Colombia is one of the world's largest arabica producers, and many regions get two harvests a year. High-altitude areas like Huila and Nariño are known for sweet, balanced coffees with caramel and fruit, and Colombian producers are behind many of today's experimental fermentations.
What the process means
In a washed process, the fruit is removed from the bean before it dries. Washed coffees tend to taste clean and bright, and show off the character of the origin.

The people behind this coffee
Meet Coffee Cycle Roasting
Coffee Cycle Roasting is a San Diego roaster founded by Chris O'Brien, who started the business in the mid-2010s as a pedal-powered coffee cart before opening a cafe in Pacific Beach. The company moved into roasting during the pandemic and opened a larger roastery and cafe in Ocean Beach in late 2024, where O'Brien roasts on a 5-kilo Mill City machine. Its Honduras Geisha E-F by Pedro Turcios scored 96 points from Coffee Review in November 2025 and ranked No. 9 on Coffee Review's Top 50 Coffees of 2025, and its Colombia Nestor Lasso El Diviso DF Caturra earned 95 points in February 2026. The menu mixes a sweet, washed house coffee with experimental Colombian lots and Ethiopian naturals, all roasted to order on Mondays. That range and the low per-bag prices make it an easy way to taste competition-level processing at home without paying competition-level money.
