This Gesha variety coffee is produced by Marlon Bolaños in Acevedo, Huila, Colombia. It undergoes a double fermentation washed process, where cherries are fermented in enclosed tanks for two days, depulped, and fermented for an additional two days before washing and drying. The flavor profile features pronounced floral jasmine, bright tropical notes of pineapple and key lime, and a sweet, creamy finish reminiscent of orange creamsicle.
Alex Shotts owns and operates Thankfully Coffee out of Auburn, Alabama. The name was chosen to stir gratitude toward the farmers who produce the coffee, and the roastery is built around long term, repeated seasonal purchases that provide economic stability to its farming partners. Shotts sources specialty beans selected for nuance, character, and complexity, and roasts with an emphasis on sweetness, approachable acidity, and body without letting roast character dominate. The approach is simple: contribute to the flourishing of the people who grow the coffee, and let that care show up in the cup.
