Coffee Story
This coffee is exclusively produced by Paul Doyle from Finca Mikava at Santuario farm in Colombia, this is the winning farm from the Cup of Excellence Competition.
This Natural Gesha is an extended fermentation using Triple processing of Anaerobic, Aerobic and Solar aerobic slow dry.
This coffee was grown at 2000 meters, hand-picked and fermented in a sealed tank without oxygen for 6 days to bring out juicy and intense flavours. Later, it’s Sundried for 1 week and gone to a Solar slow dry on raised beds for 60 days to generate even further fruitiness and complexity.
