Coffee Facts

This coffee is what we call a field blend of the two cultivars Geisha and SL28. Elias and Bellanid have been producing small amounts of Geisha and SL28 in different areas on the farm for a while now and although the coffees have been nice, the aromatics have been quite subtle and not as intense as we have wanted them to be. I suspect it is due to the fact that their coffee does not grow under a shade canopy. (I have been asking Elias to plant shade trees for many years which he is now finally doing.)

About 5 years ago, Elias decided to plant some SL28 along with seeds from his best Geisha trees in a part of the farm that had some shade trees already growing. This is the first year we are getting the coffee from this part of the farm and they have been tasting very good.

Normally we ask Elias and Bellanid to separate every picking by cultivar but  since the two cultivars are planted together in the same field and they are having difficulties to get enough pickers during the harvest, they decided to pick both cultivars together in order to save time. The result is a vibrant and delicate coffee with floral, citrus and tea like notes mixed with some red fruits.
