This coffee comes from Gerson Martinez. This coffee is a rare gesha varietal that Gerson has harvested from his plants that have reached at least three years of age. The ripest coffee cherries are hand-picked and taken to the mill, where they are rinsed, sorted, and placed on raised beds to dry to 10-11% moisture. The result is big, juicy tropical fruit flavors alongside all the complex floral notes you want in a gesha.
We recommend letting fresh coffee rest to allow the beans to stabilize. This will result in a sweeter, more expressive cup. We rest washed coffees 5–10 days, naturals 10–15 days, and experimentals 15–30 days.
