ABOUT THE PRODUCERSebastián RamĂrez, a fourth-generation coffee producer from QuindĂo, left law studies to return to coffee full-time—a decision that has made him one of the most exciting innovators in Colombia today. His farm, El Placer, covers 14 hectares at 1,650–2,000 meters and is shaded by native trees, creating an ideal ecosystem for slow maturation and high complexity.
Sebastián’s approach to processing is meticulous and highly technical. For this lot:
PROCESSING
-
Cherries are hand-selected to ensure 95% ripe fruit.
-
Fermented anaerobically in 200L tanks at a stable 18°C, with CO₂ injection and oxygenated water submersion for 48 hours.
-
Dried in a controlled two-phase slow-drying system under shade netting.
-
Rested in GrainPro for 15 days to stabilize flavor.
The combination of White Honey processing and carbonic maceration creates a cup that is both deeply sweet and intensely aromatic—a signature of Sebastián’s experimental mastery.
A truly standout Geisha: playful, floral, sweet, and absolutely memorable.
