Colombian Smallholders Organically Grown
Colombian Smallholders Organically Grown
Sourced from the Planadas subregion of South Tolima, this washed lot represents the work of 1,325 small organic farmers organised into 25 groups. Many are continuing generations of family coffee growers, cultivating Colombia, Castillo, and Caturra at elevations of up to 2,050 masl.
Planadas lies at the southern tip of Tolima, near the borders with Huila and Cauca. Located in the foothills of the central range of the Colombian Andes, the region benefits from high elevations, cool temperatures, abundant sunshine and rainfall, and fertile volcanic soils.
Coffee farming in Tolima is deeply rooted in tradition. However, in some areas infrastructure remains less developed due to the region’s history of conflict. Tolima is where the FARC guerrilla movement originated, and communities across the department endured some of the most severe years of Colombia’s internal conflict. Despite outstanding growing conditions, this isolation historically limited farmers’ access to technical support, agricultural inputs, and stable markets for their coffee.
For this lot, organically grown cherries are carefully selected, depulped, and fermented to break down the mucilage. The coffee is then thoroughly washed and dried in parabolic greenhouses for 10 to 18 days, depending on climatic conditions.

Our customers enjoy Colombian Organic from morning coffee in the cafe right through to evening events. Whether they are drinking espressos, cappuccino, long blacks or iced lattes they all comment on how great it tastes. Thanks for supplying us!
This coffee has become my regular daily favourite , prepared with my domestic De Longhi machine. The taste is beautifully balanced, with depth and refined flavours. I look forward to my routine and relaxation as I enjoy it, morning or afternoon. The smooth satisfying taste remains long after drinking. Ordering online is easy. I would love to know a little more about the growers, Thank you Potterbean. Alan
I’ve tried coffee from a few different roasters, but Potterbeans has quickly become my favourite. I use the beans in both my AeroPress and Moccamaster, and they’ve been excellent in both. The coffee is smooth, full of flavour and really enjoyable to drink every day. Great quality beans, excellent service, and I’ll definitely be ordering again.
Incredible Coffee, I brew in an aeropress and it still delivers.
I’m a new convert to Potterbeans coffee and so pleased I found it. I love all the coffees I’ve tried so far and I’m particularly pleased with the flavours of the Mexican decaf, delicious.
As always, a superb coffee & service from Potterbeans
I was brought here by the novelty of coffee in a can and have been very much enjoying that coffee!
Lovely beans, unique packaging. Make a great present and love the cork stopper! Thankyou will definitely be buying again 🤩
really smooth mellow morning coffee in my opinion, will definitely be purchasing again!!
Prepared on my small domestic espresso machine. First impressions of body and focus of flavour were positive. As black espresso found the initial impact not quite sweet enough; as a macchiato the balance was truly excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed the full persistent aftertaste. Thank you. A daily pleasure!
Delicious
A fruity coffee I have enjoyed as espresso and aeropress.
