This Gesha coffee is produced by Nidia Enríquez in the Chachagüí municipality of Nariño, Colombia. Grown at an altitude of 2,000 meters on the El Manantial lot, this coffee is hand-selected at peak ripeness. It undergoes a washed process, including a 24-hour fermentation period and 8-10 days of drying on raised beds. The flavor profile is delicate and clean, characterized by notes of jasmine, citrus, bergamot, peach, and sweet stone fruit.
Vivid Coffee was founded in 2015 by Ian Bailey in Winooski, Vermont, initially roasting on a five kilo machine in the back of a local ice cream parlor. Bailey built the company around direct relationships with small farms, in some cases purchasing entire harvests year after year to provide producers with stability and predictability. The roasting style is clean and precise, designed to let each coffee's terroir speak without interference. Vivid's sourcing framework is values driven, shaped by the realities of climate change, coffee plant disease, and the global coffee price crisis that affect the producers it works with.
