Espresso Spritz
Espresso Spritz
Espresso Spritz - Good vibes. Spritz is fun because it is complex, sparkling and forward-looking. The single origin from Colombia is roasted lighter to emphasize its exciting and complex aromas of plum, nougat and lemon. Roasted for espresso.
The Spritz tickles the tongue with its lively acidity at the first sip. It is therefore exciting as an espresso and also in combination with milk it remains present due to its complexity.

Hernan Becerra lives with his siblings, his parents, his wife and his children in the Sierra Nevada in Colombia and is passionate about growing coffee.
Hernan and his farm El Horizonte are part of the Red Ecolsierra cooperative, a network of several coffee farms in the region that has set itself three main goals:
1) Regeneration of the Colombian community after the devastating civil war that raged in Colombia for decades; For these efforts, the cooperative was awarded the national prize “Emprender Paz” in 2017
2) Regeneration of the biosphere of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, a UNESCO-protected reserve, the highest coastal mountain in the world and an important nature reserve
3) Innovation in and improvement of the quality of coffee cultivation by focusing on specialty coffee. This includes organic farming, a mixed ecosystem without artificial fertilizers and harvesting by hand.
Red Ecolsierra stands for “La Red de Productores Ecológicos de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta” – the network of organic producers in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.
“For us as coffee producers, it is important not only to grow coffee, but also to restore peace and bring new hope to the hearts of our families who so desperately need it.”
We have been sourcing the green coffee for the Espresso Spritz for the third year now through our partner Caventura, who import the coffee directly from Hernan Becerra. Every year we are amazed by the quality of the green coffee.
We want to support him, his family and the Red Ecolsierra through a long-term partnership.
