◉About the farm

Cauca is located in southern Colombia, nestled in a gentle highland region between the central and western Andes mountains. Its central city, historic Popayan, is located at an altitude of 1,760 meters, and the surrounding area produces coffee. Cold nights delay the ripening of the coffee berries, which benefit from nutrient-rich volcanic ash soil, resulting in excellent acidity and sweetness.

This coffee is a region-specific batch collected from coffee farmers in the village of Nueva Jerusalén, in the municipality of El Tambo, Cauca department.

Most coffee farmers own small farms of 2 to 3 hectares. In this region, the harvest season runs from May to July. During this period, only fully ripe, bright red coffee cherries are picked, which takes about 15 days. After harvest, the cherries are sorted into those suitable for processing and those not suitable for processing. The cherries undergo a fermentation process of approximately 36 hours in their entire state, then are depulped and fermented in tanks for a further 36 hours. After fermentation, the cherries are washed twice and dried over a period of 12 to 15 days. The drying process includes stirring three times a day to ensure a balanced coffee with great flavor.

About LiLo Coffee Roasters

LiLo Coffee Roasters was founded in 2014. The person who has planned everything about the store since its founding is Keita Nakamura, who currently serves as the chief roaster. There are 24 types of coffee beans in the LiLo coffee menu. Of course, there are price differences among various items, but there is no special focus, and every type of beans is treated equally.

At the end of his 20s, Nakamura wandered into a tea shop and drank coffee after work, which led Nakamura into another world. The gorgeous aroma of Ethiopia and the sweet and sour taste like fruit spread in your mouth. After learning about the diversity of coffee flavors, Nakamura began taking courses and extracting hand-roasted coffee beans at home, immersing himself even more in the world of coffee.

When he established LiLo in 2014, Nakamura did everything by himself, from roasting to extracting coffee in the store and receiving customers. I will stay at the factory (roastery) on weekdays, and on Saturdays I will stay at Roasters. LiLo Coffee Roasters was also selected as one of "The 50 Best Coffee Shops in Asia" by the internationally renowned travel website Big 7 Travel.
