Abstract

Hover over each feature to learn more.

Blossoming from the nutrient-dense soil of Caldas, Colombia comes this exciting Gesha offering from our friend Ivanov. This is our third year working with their coffees, and we are intoxicated with their floral and stone-fruit laden cup. This coffee performs exceedingly well as either an espresso or filter offering.

Origin

Colombia

Colombia uniquely offers a diverse array of coffee varieties and processing methods. Known for innovation and resilience, Colombia's coffee history dates back to the early 19th century, with smallholder farmers being key contributors. Despite challenges like weather and conflict, Colombia consistently produces high-quality specialty coffee. For over a decade years, we've partnered with both large and small-scale producers from all five main growing zones, fostering close relationships and friendships.

Elevation

1800 MASL

Elevation influences coffee cultivation, impacting flavor and quality. Higher elevations offer cooler temperatures, slowing the growth of coffee cherries, allowing more time for complex sugar and flavor development. This results in coffee with brighter acidity and a nuanced flavor profile. Additionally, cooler conditions at high altitudes reduce pests and diseases, making these coffees highly prized for their superior quality and distinct taste.

Variety

Gesha

Known for it's delicate, tea-like texture and pungent florals, Gesha is the most sought after variety in the world. After winning the Best of Panama this variety has skyrocketed in fame, going on to dominate the sphere of high-end specialty coffee.

Harvest

Colombia

Colombia has a unique harvest schedule, thanks to the varied topography and proximity to the equator. Between those two variables, Colombia harvests nearly year round across the five main coffee growing regions. Each region has fairly reliable harvest times that conveniently stagger, providing fresh crop coffee all year round.

Process

Drying

Raised-Bed Dried

Raised-beds are scaffold like structures that elevate perforated trays that hold coffee parchment or cherries. The holes in the structure allow for airflow on a near 360 degree level, ensuring that the coffee dries evenly when proper bed turning is practices. Some even go as far as covering the beds with a partial block from the sun, which extends drying and ensures the cell structure of the coffee goes largely undamaged from the UV.

Roasting

Diedrich CR-35

Prior to production, each roast goes through a rigorous dial-in process, where we fine-tune our temperature curves. We roast to tight tolerances, with no more than 1° deviation from target temperatures, ensuring quality and consistency in each batch.

Agtron

#73.8 Expressive Moderate

This niche category is reserved for few coffees within our band of offerings. Coffees that most often fall within this category are Central-American grown single origins, where we have developed just past light but within the realm of being considered lively. These coffees have less sugar-browing and roast characteristics than the moderately developed category, with marked acidity and origin/ processing heavily influencing the cup profile.

Inventory

-484 LBS

Day after day, producers, roasters, and cuppers alike all spend countless hours of work to produce and roast small, traceable lots that we within specialty coffee call microlots. Ranging anywhere from a few lbs to many pallets, this nebulous category refers to a traceable single-origin, producer or even specific picking date. Is all that hard work keeping things separate worth it? That is up for you to decide...

Extraction

Filter, Espresso

Our Education Team, guided by a commitment to quality, uses a blend of sensory skills and technology to brew the best coffee in our cafes and brew guides. We strive for vibrant and mouthwatering acidity, complex and approachable flavor, persistent and clear sweetness, and structured and pleasant mouthfeel, ensuring you're getting the best coffee experience.
