INTRO
The SL09 grown in the Cusco region is especially distinctive, with a delicate profile and floral notes close to Gesha. Local producers call it "Inca Gesha," inspired by the connection to Inca heritage. In the cup: sweet orange, yellow peach, and gardenia.
THE PRODUCER
San Sebastián was founded in 2014 by Julio. Facing changing climate conditions and disease challenges, he began cultivating coffee at higher elevations and focusing on varieties with stronger disease resistance.
The SL series of coffee varieties was originally developed by Scott Laboratories in Kenya in the 1930s. SL09 is a newer variety now cultivated in Peru.
THE PROCESS
This lot is Washed, a method that removes the fruit before fermentation and drying. It lets the variety's delicate, Gesha-like florality come through with clarity at 2,530 masl.
THE CUP
Delicate and floral: sweet orange and yellow peach fruit, with gardenia florality close to Gesha.
