HISTORY:

These coffees are cultivated by Colombian coffee farmers from the regions of Tolima, Huila, and Caldas. Depending on the harvest season, cherries are sourced from these regions to ensure the freshest crops, then transported and processed at our farm, El Vergel Estate.

Our agricultural journey began in 1995, and in 2010 we started cultivating coffee at El Vergel Estate in Tolima. By 2015, we had successfully harvested our first varietals.

In 2017, after facing challenges in the local market, Martha, Shady, and Elias set out to find innovative ways to add value to their coffees and close the gap between producers and roasters.

Forest Coffee was founded in 2019 with a vision to unlock the true potential of Colombian coffee through innovation in processing, education, and sustainability. Our mission is to connect coffee growers directly with international markets, ensuring fair pricing and full transparency.

Today, in 2025, Forest Coffee has grown into a thriving network of 250 coffee-growing families, four major projects across Colombia, a dedicated team of 25+, and a global community of partners and roasters.

Our story is a testament to how innovation and community can transform the coffee industry for the better.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION:

The innovative method behind The Tropical Splash begins with the careful selection of Pink Borbon cherries, which are then co-fermented with yeast & coconut flavors. This fermentation occurs anaerobically in plastic tanks for 144 hours, allowing the tropical flavors to fully infuse into the beans.

After fermentation, the coffee is sun-dried for 30 days with lemon peel to impart a distinctive citric finish. During this drying phase, the coffee and lemon peel are combined in drying beds and subjected to both sun and mechanical drying methods, ensuring a consistent and thorough drying process.

Finally, the coffee undergoes a 45-day stabilization period in GrainPro bags before milling. This meticulous process results in a coffee with a unique flavor profile featuring citrus, coconut, lemonade, and a creamy texture with tropical fruits.
