Whole Bean Coffee250G (8.8OZ)
Huila sits in the southwest of Colombia, where the Andes split into three distinct cordilleras and the altitude swings between extremes. At 1,750 metres, the Santa Maria farm sits in that sweet spot where slow cherry development and cool nights concentrate sugars without sacrificing the clarity that defines great Colombian filter coffee. The washed process strips everything back, letting the terroir speak directly into the cup. Clean, precise, and quietly complex -- this is what great Colombian filter coffee looks like.
The cup opens with the crisp snap of Fuji apple, bright without being sharp. A blood orange mid-palate brings citrus depth and a soft acidity that lingers, before the finish rounds out into warm toffee. It is a coffee that rewards patience -- best enjoyed slow.

Same comments as before
- BTBen T.Verified Buyer1 month agoRated 5 out of 5 starsJust outstanding
I don't normally enjoy Colombian beans because the flavors can be very subtle. That's absolutely not the case here, the blood orange is sweet and bright and the fuji apple is a crazy back end but very clear. Great as a pour over, but really special as an espresso. Bigface is really consistent, has great body and mouthfeel and outstanding variety, it's been hard to shop elsewhere. Thank you all.
BBBIGFACE BRAND2 weeks agoReading this put a smile on our faces. Hearing that this one delivered both clarity and character is awesome. Thanks for spending time with the coffee and sharing such thoughtful feedback. It truly means a lot.

Q: What does “specialty coffee” mean?
Specialty coffee is carefully evaluated for quality, traceability, and flavor—from cultivation and processing through roasting and brewing.
Q: Where does BIGFACE source its coffees from?
We source distinctive coffees from exceptional producers and regions around the world, selecting each release for clarity, sweetness, and character.
Q: Why do tasting notes mention fruit, flowers, or chocolate?
Those notes describe flavors and aromas naturally present in the coffee. Nothing is added; they are reference points for what you may experience in the cup.
Q: How should I store my coffee?
Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct light, heat, moisture, and strong odors. Grind only what you plan to brew.
Q: Is specialty coffee worth the higher price?
The price reflects careful sourcing, producer expertise, quality-focused processing, and small-batch roasting—all of which show up in the final cup.
