This coffee is a Geisha variety from the Northern region of Peru, produced by Don Elmer and the Rutas del Inca cooperative. It is a fully washed coffee that features elegant floral aromatics, vibrant citrus notes of grapefruit and mandarin orange, and a refined sweetness reminiscent of honeysuckle. The cup is characterized by sparkling acidity, a delicate body, and remarkable clarity.
Winfield and Joy Durham founded Sisters Coffee Company in 1989 in the small town of Sisters, Oregon, starting with a five pound roaster after discovering their love for coffee while working in Alaska in 1984. They became the first specialty roasters in Central Oregon. In 2017, three of their children, Justin, Jared, and Jesse, took over leadership, making it a true multi generational family operation. Sisters roasts over 270,000 pounds annually on a 25 kilogram Probat roaster and maintains direct trade relationships with producers, traveling to origin three to four times a year. They were the first U.S. roaster to purchase directly from Aurelio Villatoro's Finca Villaure in Guatemala in 2004, a relationship that continues today.
