METAL FACE - Colombia

Tasting notes

In the roaster’s words

Colombia + Huila Varietal: Gesha Process: Washed Altitude: 1650 masl Green Tea, Lemongrass, Pineapple Candy This Gesha CB-02 coffee, produced by Santiago Noriega at the Cultivares farm, hails from the renowned Huila region of Colombia. Grown at an elevation of 1650 masl, this Gesha varietal undergoes a meticulous and unique Washed processing method that emphasises controlled fermentation and temperature. The journey begins with hand-picking ripe cherries, followed by an initial 72-hour whole cherry fermentation. After depulping, the beans are oxidised in sealed bags for 24 hours before receiving a traditional wash. The drying phase is equally precise, utilising raised African beds for five days and concluding with an 18-hour mechanical finish in a silo.
