Description

About This Coffee

The Geisha & Java Blend Natural Process represents an exceptional fusion of two prestigious coffee varietals, sourced from the privileged volcanic soils of El Águila in Colombia’s Valle del Cauca region. This microlot has been evaluated by SCA-certified cuppers and achieved a score of 85.75 points, placing it firmly in the specialty-grade category.

Tasting Profile

This coffee offers a complex sensory experience that begins with vibrant notes of fresh grape and mixed berries, evolves into rich dark chocolate, and finishes with the delicate floral characteristics inherent to the Geisha varietal.

Acidity: Bright and fruity, reminiscent of ripe grapes
Body: Velvety and silky, medium-to-full
Sweetness: Pronounced, with honey and caramel notes
Finish: Long and persistent, with chocolate and floral undertones

The Natural Process

The natural (sun-dried) processing method is a traditional technique where coffee cherries are dried whole in the sun for 15-20 days. This method allows the natural sugars from the fruit to ferment within the bean, resulting in:

– Enhanced flavor complexity
– Fuller body and velvety texture
– Pronounced sweetness
– Intense fruit-forward notes
