INTRO

This phenomenal washed Geisha from Wilder Lasso's Finca Bella Alejandria is a study in floral purity. Grown at 2100 MASL in San Adolfo, Huila, it presents an almost overwhelmingly aromatic profile — lavender, bergamot, and jasmine in a coffee that is light-bodied and lingering. September describes it simply as "extremely aromatic".

THE PRODUCER

Wilder Lasso (or Lazo) is a veterinarian turned specialist coffee producer whose farms in San Adolfo, Huila have become a reliable source of outstanding Geisha lots for September Coffee. Bella Alejandria is his highest-altitude farm, and the elevation contributes directly to the delicate, concentrated florality that defines this washed expression. His disciplined, scientific approach to farming and processing ensures consistency across every harvest.

THE PROCESS

The Washed process at Bella Alejandria involves:

• 🍒 Selective Picking — Hand-picked Geisha cherries at full ripeness
• 💧 Traditional Washing — Fully washed to remove all mucilage
• ☀️ Raised Bed Drying — Dried on raised beds, preserving the coffee's delicate aromatic clarity

The clean washed process at altitude allows the Geisha variety to express its full floral potential with exceptional transparency.

THE CUP

Light-bodied and ethereally aromatic, this washed Geisha has a lingering floral finish that stays with you long after the cup is empty. An almost meditative coffee — quiet, precise, and beautiful.
