This coffee is a Gesha variety from the Finca Ecológica farm in the Huabal district of the Cajamarca region in Peru. Grown at an altitude of 1850 meters, this coffee is processed using the washed method. The farm is managed by Gilmer Mejia using organic practices, including the use of compost and guano, without the use of herbicides. The coffee is hand-picked to ensure ripeness, reflecting the producer's commitment to quality.
Founded by Curtis Zimmerman, a former international bicycle racer who discovered Nordic coffee culture during his travels through Europe, Presta Coffee emerged in 2012 with a coffee cart before establishing itself as a roastery in 2014. Operating using a 15kg Joper Roaster with the belief that "coffee is meant to be shared," Presta has served Tucson for over a decade with a philosophy rooted in integrity and passion.
