Aponte Community

The Aponte Community coffee comes from the Nariño region of Colombia, situated at a high altitude of 2150 meters. This geographic positioning places their cultivation in a cool mountain climate typical of high-elevation Colombian coffee production. The dominant varietal grown by the community in the catalog is Caturra. This single cultivar forms the basis of their offerings recorded in the index. The process portfolio represented in the catalog includes both washed and honey treatments. These methods reflect standard preparation techniques applied to their harvests. Two specialty roasters, Prolog Coffee and La Cabra, carry lots from the producer. The index records a total of two coffees from the Aponte Community, with one lot currently in stock and an average Cherrybook Index of 66.4 across their offerings. Recent catalog examples include the Aponte Caturra Washed roasted by Prolog Coffee and the Colombia Aponte prepared as a honey process by La Cabra. These entries illustrate the application of different processing methods to the same underlying varietal.
