About This Coffee

El Encanto Maragesha Natural is a Colombian microlot from Pijao in Quindío, grown by smallholder producers and processed using Cofinet's EF2 Natural method. Maragesha is a rare, naturally occurring cross between Gesha and Maragogype varieties, cultivated at approximately 2,050 meters altitude. Cherries are hand-picked selectively, floated-sorted, and hand-sorted before undergoing 45 hours of aerobic fermentation and slow drying on raised beds. The coffee exhibits floral and juicy notes, blueberry sweetness, crisp lime, and red fruit layers, with a full, syrupy mouthfeel and long, candy-like aftertaste.

Yellowbird Coffee

Yellowbird Coffee is a specialty roaster in Copenhagen, Denmark, roasting twice weekly on a Giesen W15A they call the Baroness. The roastery favors light to medium profiles that highlight origin characteristics, approaching each coffee as an expression of the farmer's work and the land it grew on. Yellowbird maintains direct relationships with producers, traveling to coffee growing regions to build long term partnerships and ensure fair, stable pricing. The company uses a color coded bag system to signal roast profiles, making it easy for customers to navigate their range.
