# 13 Colombia Decaf Yuppie Natural

This coffee comes to us through a partnership between Belco Coffee and a local group of Indigenous Nasa Wesx peoples in the highlands of Tolima. Their partnership is spearheaded by a group of young Nasa Wesx who have dedicated themselves to returning to the land and bettering their local community. These “Young Professional People”, or “Yuppies”, are excited to bring fresh passion to their people’s coffee heritage and we’re proud to support their efforts!

The new generation’s fresh perspective is clear in choosing a natural process for this lot, and their commitment to quality is obvious from the first sip. This coffee reminds me of high-end natural process Costa Rican coffees – super fruity and downright juicy sweet with plenty of body to spare. But the finish is where it really shines – clean, quick and refreshing. We tested a range of roast levels and got notes ranging from blueberry, strawberry and blackberry (or as I call it, the Berry Trinity) to mango, lime, passionfruit and even fruity pebbles. It’s a fruit bomb, ya’ll! The Yuppies of the Nasa Wesx took a big swing with this one, and they knocked it right out of the park.
