Farm and Producer
Paul and Kevin Doyle operate Mikava's farms in Risaralda, Colombia. Their Marsella farm sits at approximately 1,700 meters, with shade trees planted alongside the coffee. The team cultivates distinct varieties and keeps its processing preparations separate, including this natural Gesha.
Variety
Gesha, also spelled Geisha, is an Arabica variety with Ethiopian origins. It is valued for high cup-quality potential and floral aromatics, especially under suitable high-elevation growing conditions. Its expression also depends on cultivation, processing, and roasting.
Processing
Natural processing dries the coffee with the cherry surrounding the seed. Contact with the fruit during fermentation and drying can contribute to fruit expression and body; careful moisture management remains important.
