PROCESS DESCRIPTION:
Immerse yourself in the world of Gesha with a unique coffee process. The selection process ensures that over 95% of cherries are picked at the peak of ripeness. This leads to a distinctive Carbonic Maceration fermentation, lasting 52 hours, akin to a spa day for the beans. Following this, the beans are meticulously dried under the warm sun, adopting a slow and deliberate approach to coax out the amazing flavors. This carefully curated journey captures the essence of Gesha coffee, making it a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
HISTORY:
Welcome to El Vergel, where they're pushing the boundaries of coffee farming to new heights! Nestled in the highest reaches of the estate, this Gesha coffee is like the VIP of the farm.
Planted back in 2016 with over 12,000 plants, it's been a labor of love to cultivate this microlot to perfection. But here's the twist: they're not just growing any old Gesha. Oh no, they're diving deep into the genetics of this bean, mixing and matching branches to create a flavour profile that's out of this world! Through some seriously innovative processes, like their CM fermentation technique, they've unlocked a whole new realm of possibilities for what Gesha coffee can be.
