About This Coffee

This single-origin coffee is from the El Vergel Estate in Tolima, Colombia, grown at 1460 meters elevation. The coffee is Gesha variety processed using the Koji Supernatural method, where koji spores (aspergillus oryzae) are sprinkled over coffee cherries and left for 3-4 days with controlled temperature and oxygen presence, followed by 10 days of sun drying and 2-4 days of mechanical drying. This processing method acts as a catalyst to breakdown the inherent properties of the coffee cherry and amplifies flavors, resulting in increased sweetness and cup structure. The coffee offers floral, white grape, vanilla, apricot, and mixed spice notes. Available as filter roast only.
