The Story Behind Excelso EP Tolima Organic ASO Bilbao

In the mountains of southern Tolima, the community of Bilbao is home to ASOBILBAO, an association of smallholder producers committed to organic coffee farming. Working on small family farms at high elevation, members cultivate coffee without synthetic inputs, relying on shade, natural fertilization, and careful farm management to protect the land and the quality of their harvest.

Cherries are hand-picked at peak ripeness, then pulped, fermented, washed, and dried, a process that highlights the clarity and sweetness Tolima coffees are known for. Exported in partnership with Racafé, this certified organic Excelso EP reflects the dedication of a community building a sustainable future through specialty coffee.
