INTRO An exceptional Geisha cultivated with dedication by the Esencia Pura cooperative within the La Unión Crop Management group, perched at 2,100 meters in the majestic mountains of Nariño. A brilliant cup opens with the fruity sweetness of dried apricot, paired with the floral scent of enchanting jasmine and citrus vivacity. In the cup: dried apricot, jasmine, and citrus.

THE PRODUCER Grown in a unique volcanic terroir where ancestral indigenous know-how endures, this coffee comes from a collaborative, highly precise effort by the Esencia Pura cooperative.

THE PROCESS This lot undergoes anaerobic fermentation meticulously adjusted between 36 and 96 hours depending on the surrounding climate, before being washed. Drying then takes place gently under parabolic dryers for 10 to 25 days, ensuring a slow, stable reduction in moisture.

The climate-adjusted 36–96 hour anaerobic fermentation window is the defining step — it's what builds the dried apricot sweetness and jasmine florality that define this cup, while the slow parabolic drying keeps the citrus vivacity clean and precise.

THE CUP Brilliant and precise — dried apricot sweetness opens the cup, paired with an enchanting jasmine florality and a citrus vivacity throughout. Medium acidity, a silky body, and a light roast let this collaborative, high-precision lot shine.
