Slow Roasted Beef Shank
Tábula · Bogotá · Website · Directions
Don Elias' small, old-school organic coffee farm is located in Salento, Quindío. We took a tour this past winter while staying at La Serrana, a mountain top farmhouse-turned-hostel. The tour was lead by Don Elias' grandson, who actually grew up in Jersey but has gone back to Colombia to give tours and run a tejo bar in town.
Ripe Arabica coffee cherries, one is a typical variety and the other is the Colombia variety.
Coffee beans drying in the sun.
Green beans before roasting.
After roasting and ready to enjoy! ☕
