OUR STORY
Our agricultural journey began in 1995, with coffee cultivation at El Vergel Estate in Tolima starting in 2010. After years of working closely with producers, Forest Coffee was founded in 2019 to bridge the gap between Colombian coffee growers and the global market through innovation, education, and sustainable practices.
Today, Forest Coffee works with over 250 coffee-growing families across four projects in Colombia, connecting exceptional coffees directly with roasters worldwide while promoting fair pricing and transparency.
A story built on innovation, community, and a better future for Colombian coffee.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What brew method is best for Colombia Gesha Marcela?
We strongly recommend pour-over methods such as V60, Origami, or Kalita Wave to highlight its vibrant citric acidity, tea rose aromas, and sweet tropical fruit notes.
Q2: What is the recommended water temperature?
For optimal extraction clarity without bitterness, use filtered water at 92°C–94°C.
Q3: How fresh is the roast upon delivery?
All beans are small-batch roasted weekly in Melbourne and shipped within days of roasting to ensure peak aromatic freshness.
Q4: How should I store whole bean coffee?
Keep the beans sealed in their original valved bag in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. After 1 week of degassing post-roast, storing sealed bags in the freezer is recommended to preserve peak freshness and flavor for up to 1 year.
