Just in: Gesha coffee from Colombia. This coffee is celebrated for its unique and complex taste, often featuring floral, jasmine-like notes with a vibrant acidity and a silky, tea-like body.
Following harvest, the Gesha cherries undergoing the Washed process are also put through a 72 hour anaerobic fermentation process. Afterwards, they are depulped and washed before having time to rest and dry in a greenhouse. The flavors are smoother and rounder.
Enjoy this special coffee before it's gone!
Originally discovered in Ethiopia, Gesha coffees are celebrated for their distinctive floral and complex fruit flavors — often likened to jasmine, bergamot, and tropical fruits. This special release, grown by Willington Gutierrez in Tolima, Colombia, showcases this unique variety's flavor profile through two processing methods — washed and natural.
This rare coffee offers a unique tasting experience that distinguishes it from other coffees, due to its delicate aroma and vibrant taste. We're very proud to have a small amount of these special coffees, and to share the beautiful work of Willington with the world.
