Product details

We are thrilled to bring back the original Gesha! This is a naturally processed Gesha from producer Don Mariano who we have worked with for over 5 years. For those who know, Gesha is a special bean varietal known for it's expressive and unique flavours. We find the natural processing brings out an intensity in the flavours, this coffee leans toward the tropical fruit and boozy side. 

This is being offered in 200g format only as a special release.

The coffee has intense aromas of guava, mango and vanilla. The cup is silky smooth and gives impressions of sweet blood orange and tropical fruit, and apple. There is a lingering sweetness with subtle notes of strawberry and sugarcane.

NOTES FROM THE MASTER ROASTER:

We have been working with producer Don Mariano for 5 years for his wonderful honey produced coffees, so it was an easy choice for us to feature his natural Gesha. This is our second year offering this coffee. This years version has more pronounced fermentation giving it some pleasant booziness as well as a distinct cider flavour.

ABOUT THE ART

Geisha on Vaction

For this artwork we wanted to play around with double meaning of the word Gesha/Geisha. Gesha being the unique bean variety often pronounced the same way as the Japanese word Geisha for the traditional performer. Geisha is one of symbols in Cafe Yamabiko, and we thought it would be fun for this artwork to show Geisha on vacation. This was also influenced by the tropical fruit notes we were getting from this coffee.
