From the producer

Bijao represents a group of small coffee producers near La Plata, Huila. Counter Culture encountered the group while exploring Huila’s offset harvest cycle for fresher Colombian components.

From the roaster

Counter Culture Coffee is a specialty roaster focused on transparent trade and sustainable sourcing practices, often highlighting unique microlots and specific regional harvest cycles.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

The lot was originally considered for a blend, but its confectionery chocolate, mixed-berry, and red-grape character earned a separate subscriber-exclusive release.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Small-producer collection

02
Washed processing

Counter Culture identifies the exact 2025 harvest as washed.

Release-specific drying

The current product page does not publish the drying surface or duration for this lot.

What was added?

No added ingredients or starter cultures are disclosed.

What wasn't added?

Why it matters
