colombia la colmena is a washed single-origin coffee from huila, one of colombia's most respected coffee-growing regions. the washed process keeps the cup clean and precise, letting the fruit and sweetness of the bean come through clearly. expect red apple acidity, stone fruit in the mid-palate, and a caramel finish that rounds things out. it suits filter brewing well, where clarity and balance are easiest to dial in. use a medium-fine grind, water around 93c, and a slow pour to let the apple and stone fruit notes develop without the caramel turning flat.

about north star coffee roasters

north star coffee roasters takes roasting seriously, and you can tell. based out of tong road in ls12, this isn't a cafe that happened to start roasting on the side. the roastery is the point. everything follows from that: the sourcing decisions, the precision, the reason people cross leeds to get here rather than settling for whatever's closest. ls12 isn't a neighbourhood that gets a lot of coffee press, which maybe keeps the focus where it belongs, on the coffee itself. if you're the kind of person who wants to understand what's actually in your cup rather than just drink it, north star gives you something to think about. start with whatever's on filter.
