THE DEETS

This Natural processed Gesha is an absolute stunner. It's got big, intense red fruit flavors up front (think strawberry and cherry) with waves of sweet flavors that remind us of Werther's candy. It has a long, clean finish that leaves no doubt this is a fantastic coffee. The care and attention to detail during harvesting and processing are very apparent.

Ninety Plus Coffee owns and operates The Gesha Estates. Founder Joseph Brodsky acquired this 200-hectare property in Volcan, Panama, in 2009. He envisioned reforesting the land with native trees and planting Gesha coffee beneath its canopy. In 2014, the farm saw its first significant production, and its coffee won five World Brewers Cup Championships in six years. Ninety Plus consistently produces some of the best coffees in the world, and we are beyond excited to roast and share this one with you!

Brosky's approach is exceptionally meticulous. Each step of the growing and processing process is carefully considered to get the most out of each coffee. The coffee is grown in shade with fruit-bearing trees. During harvest, only the ripest cherries are hand-picked. After harvest, the cherries are carefully sorted to remove any undesirable fruit. Next, the cherries are dried on the top level of a raised bed until they reach 18% moisture, then moved to a lower level. The cherries are rotated manually every 2 hours until optimal moisture levels are achieved (usually 20-35 days total). The coffee rests for 30-60 days before being milled.
