She produced one of their favourite Geshas from Peru last season, and they are excited to have her coffee again this year. Grown at extraordinary altitude in Inkawasi, Cusco, this lot is as expressive as it is refined. In the cup: ripe peach, white florals, and fresh blueberries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarlene Rojas farms in Inkawasi, a remote corner of the Cusco region renowned for its extreme altitudes and exceptional cup quality. Last year, SEY spent significant time exploring southern Peru and were consistently blown away by what they found — the unique varieties, the terroir, and the dedication of producers like Marlene. Her coffee was among the first they tasted from the region and played a key role in their desire to explore it further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFarming at over 2,000 MASL, Marlene works in conditions that are physically demanding but uniquely suited to producing Gesha of remarkable complexity.
