Colombia VIANI – washed – ESPRESSO

Viani has a special place in our hearts here at MCR as it’s a coffee that has been on our list since we started Manhattan Coffee Roasters.

We’ve been working with DR Wakefield and Racafe to improve the coffee and in line with that also pay more for these improvements. First was the use of GrainPro bags and second an agreed better sorting which allows for less defects. So in time it has massively improved in quality and probably most important has increased income for these small farm holders.

Viani is a small town in Cundinamarca, which is not too far from Bogota, a literal drive down. The “Viani” coffee is made up from coffee from more than 400 small farm holders coming from 5 municipalities and delivered to 3 collection points.
