Bucaramanga sits in Santander’s wind‑cooled valleys where coffee expanded in the early 20th century along mule routes linking haciendas to the Magdalena River. Drier harvest weather and traditional washed processing shaped a style prized for sweetness and poise. Graded Supremo for large, even screens, El Gato roasts uniformly, building a caramel‑and‑milk‑chocolate core at medium while preserving a soft red‑apple and stone‑fruit lift. Acidity reads medium and clean, body falls silky and rounded, and the cup concludes with a neat cocoa and caramelized‑sugar line—an approachable, quietly refined Colombian that reflects the region’s steady climate and patient drying.
