MORE INFO Alonso Bustos says his coffee is the result of conscious effort and intention and he wants those drinking it to know the time and care he put into it. This unique Tabi lot takes a high-quality coffee variety and pairs it with his conscious effort and care to create a truly phenomenal coffee. Alonso is a second-generation coffee producer who’s been cultivating coffee for over 50 years. He inherited Finca El Mirador through his wife. Today, they live on the farm with their 3 children and 2 grandchildren. Alonso’s children inspired his to start producing specialty coffee in 2017. To further improve coffee quality, Alonso has planted Tabi, a variety that’s known for larger fruit and its ability to flourish at high altitudes. His grandchildren are showing interest in becoming coffee farmers themselves. This is a unique Tabi lot. Tabi is a cross between Typica, Bourbon and Timor created by CENICAFE. It was released in 2002 and combines coffee leaf rust resistance with the good cup quality of Bourbon and Typica. Similar to those two parents, Tabi is tall with long branches. However, Tabi has slightly larger fruits and seeds and can be grown at high altitudes, and in high density, with up to 3,000 trees per hectare. The name comes from the word “tabi,” meaning “good” in Guambiano, the dialect of a native Colombia tribe.
