INTRO Horizon, one of Deborah Farm's standout Gesha offerings, crafted using a unique hybrid processing method that's earned Jamison Savage's coffees multiple awards in international barista and brewer competitions. Jasmine and pineapple lead, with bergamot brightness and a candied lemon sweetness layered throughout. In the cup: jasmine, pineapple, bergamot, and candied lemon.
THE PRODUCER Jamison Savage's Deborah Farm has earned recognition across international barista and brewer competitions, built on a reputation for precise, innovative processing. Horizon showcases that work through a distinctive hybrid method combining natural fermentation with a washed finish.
THE PROCESS Fully ripe cherries (21–24 Brix) are carefully selected and placed in sealed fermentation tanks with a specific added yeast, left to marinate for over 100 hours. During this time, the yeast breaks down sugars and fruit components, building rich, complex aromas that enhance fruity and floral notes, soften acidity, and add body. After fermentation, the cherries are pulped and dried in a precisely controlled three-stage system designed by Jamison, with temperature, humidity, and airflow carefully monitored to preserve the delicate flavours developed during fermentation. After about 12 days, the beans reach around 11% moisture and rest in GrainPro bags for a stabilisation (Reposo) period of up to 60 days, before final sorting and grading by density, size, and colour.
The over-100-hour yeast-inoculated fermentation combined with the precisely controlled three-stage drying is the defining step — together they build the jasmine, pineapple, and bergamot complexity that define this cup, while the extended Reposo rest refines it into a clean, balanced finish.
THE CUP Rich and refined — jasmine florality and pineapple sweetness up front, bergamot brightness through the middle, and a candied lemon finish. A precise, award-calibre expression of Deborah Farm's hybrid processing work.
