Blind Assessment

Lushly aromatic, deeply floral-toned. Wisteria, ginger blossom, nectarine, pink grapefruit, lemon balm in aroma and cup. Delicately bright, confident acidity; exceptionally silky-smooth mouthfeel. Notes of wisteria and ginger blossom harmonize alongside a throughline of nectarine and citrus undertones.

Notes

Produced by Rigoberto Herrera of Granja La Esperanza, entirely of the Gesha variety of Arabica, and processed by a proprietary hybrid washed method, in which the whole cherries are fermented in water for 19-22 hours. Then, the fruit is depulped and undergoes a second fermentation begins, this time in parchment and mucilage for 35 hours. Founded in 2013, modcup coffee focuses on fresh roasting and distinctive natural-processed coffees. Visit modcup.com for more information.

Bottom Line

Sweet and spice-toned florals are front and center in this experimentally processed Colombia Geisha with gently bright stone fruit, sweet herb, and pretty citrus notes throughout the profile.
