The best Caturra coffees in our catalog

Caturra is a staple of the specialty coffee world. It is a natural mutation of Bourbon that offers high yields and a reliable, clean profile. We currently have 20 lots in stock that feature this variety. Most of these selections are washed, which highlights the crisp acidity and balanced sweetness that Caturra is known for. You will find heavy representation from George Howell Coffee, alongside roasters like Commonwealth Joe and Sightglass. While Caturra often appears in blends, these lots showcase it as a single-variety focus. The origins span from Huila in Colombia to Oaxaca in Mexico and Dota in Costa Rica. Whether you prefer the classic structure of a washed process or the occasional experimental anaerobic lot, these coffees represent the current standard for the variety.

What to taste for:Look for a clean, bright acidity paired with a balanced, medium body and consistent sweetness in every cup.
