This is a coffee that won first place at the 2021 Colombia Cup of Excellence — an extraordinary achievement for an equally extraordinary lot. Prolog have brought this coffee back year after year, and for very good reason: it continues to deliver a jaw-dropping cup that showcases what washed Geisha from the high altitudes of Nariño is capable of.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the strictly limited volume available, Prolog roast this exclusively as an omni profile, making it equally rewarding as filter or espresso. Notes of sweet peach, mango, and floral delicacy mark this out as a genuinely special coffee — available in a 125g bag only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePablo Guerrero was the first person to introduce coffee to the Tangua area outside of Pasto, beginning cultivation in 2000. Hacienda El Obraje had been in his family for generations, originally producing wheat and other grains, but as imported grains made traditional farming unviable Pablo pivoted to coffee — a decision that would ultimately reshape the region's agricultural identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy 2009 he had built his own processing facility and entered the specialty coffee market. From there, Pablo's experimentation accelerated: new varietals, new processing techniques, and an ever-growing reputation for quality. He planted his first Geisha seeds, brought from Panama, in 2011 — starting with 2,000 trees and later expanding to 9,000, all given generous 3-metre spacing to accommodate the variety's broad-reaching branches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe farm sits at 2,200 metres above sea level on volcanic mineral-rich soils in Nariño, with dramatic daily temperature swings from 32°C at midday down to 8°C or below at night. These extremes produce incredibly dense, complex beans. El Obraje's wet mill is meticulous: tile fermentation tanks, depulping equipment, mechanical dryers, and raised solar-dryer beds all contribute to a tightly controlled and consistent process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Washed process at Hacienda El Obraje involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍒 \u003cstrong\u003eSelective Harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e — Only fully mature, red-purple Geisha cherries are picked by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✅ \u003cstrong\u003eFlotation Sorting\u003c\/strong\u003e — Cherries floated to remove underripe and defective fruit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔧 \u003cstrong\u003eDepulping\u003c\/strong\u003e — Mechanical removal of the cherry skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🧪 \u003cstrong\u003eDry Fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e — Beans fermented without water to develop complexity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e💧 \u003cstrong\u003eWashing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Coffee fully washed with clean water, removing residual mucilage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e☀️ \u003cstrong\u003eDrying\u003c\/strong\u003e — Dried on raised beds under a solar dryer structure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe combination of careful cherry selection, controlled fermentation, and clean washing produces a cup of exceptional clarity and elegance — everything you want from a top-tier washed Geisha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLuscious and refined in equal measure.
