Sudan Rume is one of the rarer coffee varieties. Prized for its exceptional cup quality, it typically offers floral and tea-like characteristics, often with notes of jasmine, citrus, and stone fruit.
While this lot has plenty of these qualities, a 3-step fermentation process has facilitated a texture much juicier, silkier, syrupy than you’d expect. Two oxygen-rich stages and one oxygen-free have helped drive a cup rich, sweet and intensely fruity.

The multi-farm group Café Granja La Esperanza is a pillar of Colombian coffee. Celebrated for its innovation, quality, and dedication to the highest quality coffee. Established in 1945 by Juan Antonio Herrera and Blanca Ligia Correa, the farm built itself a solid reputation for Typica, Bourbon and Caturra coffees.
More recently, the Herrera family - particularly sons Rigoberto and Luis – have transformed the farm to produce a regular stream of competition-grade coffees.
La Esperanza operates several farms across the Valle del Cauca department, each with unique microclimates and coffees expressive of these.
- Cerro Azul: Specialises in Geisha coffees.
- Las Margaritas: Produces Geisha, Mokka, Laurina, Pacamara, and Pink Bourbon lots.
- La Esperanza: Offering Laurina, Colombia, Geisha, Yellow Bourbon, and Caturra varieties.
- Potosí: The family’s original farm. Producing Geisha, Sidra, San Juan, Colombia, Castillo, and Mandela lots.
