This coffee is produced by Emiliano Golondrino in the La Plata Municipality of Huila, Colombia. It is a Gesha variety coffee that undergoes a unique processing method: the cherries are held for 36 hours, depulped and washed, then fermented again for 40 hours submerged in water. The flavor profile features sweet ripe apricot and stone fruit notes, bright cherry acidity, and a lingering sweet oolong tea aftertaste with delicate floral characteristics.
Based in Philadelphia, Poem Coffee Roasters operates as a tiny boutique roasting company dedicated to ultra small batch production at the highest level. Their entire production schedule revolves around a single roasting day each week, with all coffees roasted to order exclusively on Tuesdays. This practice allows them to capture seasonally sourced specialty beans that reflect fleeting points in time, creating a limited and intentional coffee experience that celebrates the unique characteristics of each harvest.
