El Placer. Geisha MC. Café de Colombia

About This Coffee

This coffee is from the El Placer Farms project in Quindío, Colombia, produced by Sebastián Ramírez, a fourth-generation coffee producer. Grown at altitudes between 1,300-1,600 meters above sea level, this Geisha varietal undergoes a white honey process with carbonic maceration. The cherries undergo carbonic maceration in sealed tanks for 48 hours, then are depulped and lightly washed, leaving some mucilage on the parchment. The coffee is sun-dried on raised beds and covered at night, slowly dried to 9-11% humidity. The flavor profile features peach, orange, lemongrass, chamomile, and floral notes.
