In the cup: guava, mango, orange creamsicle, and pink bubblegum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFranky Stiven Hoyos is a third-generation farmer from Huila and one of the many young, multi-generational producers in Colombia pushing the boundaries of processing and flavour. His grandfather began by planting mixed crops on El Encanto, and his father was the first to plant coffee on ten of its 45 hectares. Franky cut his teeth learning barista, roasting, and sensory skills, and now pairs those with inherited farming wisdom and experimental processing. He farms sustainably, pursues quality relentlessly, and is refreshingly transparent about his processing protocols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter being handpicked at peak ripeness, whole cherries are floated to remove lower-density beans and undergo an initial oxidative fermentation of 38 hours. They are then rinsed, sanitised, and pulped. The parchment goes into open 210-litre tanks and warms for 6 hours before a thermal shock protocol \"opens the pores\" in anticipation of inoculation with orange extract and red fruit yeast. After inoculation, the coffee ferments another 38 hours submerged in water, is thoroughly rinsed, then spread to dry in the sun for 12 hours, with drying completed in mechanical dryers for a further 28 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermal shock followed by orange extract and red fruit yeast inoculation is the defining step. It's what builds the guava, mango, and creamsicle character, with Gesha's expressiveness on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpressive, tropical, and summery: guava and mango lead, with orange creamsicle sweetness and a pink bubblegum finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍈 Guava 🥭 Mango 🍊 Orange Creamsicle 🍬 Pink Bubblegum\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black \u0026 White Roasters","offers":[{"title":"Filter \/ 340g \/ October 15th","offer_id":59063416881526,"sku":"B\u0026W-FRANKY-HOYOS-TROPICAL-GEISHA-WASHED-FIL-340G-OCT15","price":28.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/9152\/5021\/files\/ilse_logo_1_-41-cropped.png?v=1792493424","url":"https:\/\/sigmacoffee.co.uk\/products\/black-white-roasters-franky-hoyos-gesha-tropical-colombia","provider":"Sigma Coffee UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
