Tapasya Colombian Dark Roast - 5 lb Bag

Deep, smooth, and richly sweet, Tapasya is our darkest roast and a dependable choice for customers who prefer a traditional dark-roast profile without excessive bitterness, smoke, or ashiness.

This washed coffee comes from the Popayán Reserve Program in Cauca, Colombia. Our Medium-Dark roast develops notes of dark chocolate and toffee nut while maintaining a polished finish and lower perceived acidity.

Packaged in a 5 lb bag and roasted weekly, Tapasya is well suited for cafés, restaurants, offices, hospitality programs, espresso service, and frequent home brewing.

The 5 lb bag contains the same coffee and roast profile as our 10 oz retail offering.

Producer and Origin

The Popayán Reserve Program works with approximately 75 coffee growers in Cauca, Colombia. The program focuses on quality, consistency, and long-term producer relationships, with premiums offered according to individual lot assessments.

Coffee is grown between 1,500 and 2,070 meters in volcanic ash soils. The region’s elevation, moderate temperatures, and dependable rainfall support sweetness and structure in the finished cup.

Processing and Roast Development

After cherry selection, the coffee is depulped, washed, and dried on raised beds for approximately five to seven days.

This clean processing method creates a stable foundation for deeper roasting. We develop Tapasya to a Medium-Dark level, emphasizing dark chocolate, toffee nut, and comforting sweetness without allowing the roast to become smoky, bitter, or ashy.
