This coffee is a Gesha from El Paramo, produced by Paulina Maytan Casa in Amaypata, Inkawasi, Peru. It is processed using a washed method. The lot features a light roast with tasting notes described as starfruit, rainier cherry, donut peach, and wildflower, and comes from an elevation of about 2400 meters.
Founded in 2020 at the onset of the COVID 19 pandemic, Moonwake Coffee Roasters emerged from the passion of two former tech engineers, Ming Wood from Tesla and Mabel Yeung from Meta. What began as Ming's personal coffee project within Tesla's internal coffee club evolved into a full roastery operation after both founders chose to leave their tech careers to pursue coffee full time between 2023 and 2024. Moonwake represents a growing movement of technologists who discovered that coffee roasting offers greater fulfillment than their previous careers, channeling engineering precision into specialty coffee.
