New! San Antonio Geisha

A new velvety and fruity Geisha! Our San Antonio Geisha was grown by farmer Nilson López on his 10 hectare farm San Antonio in the Nariño region of Colombia. Known for producing exemplary coffee, the Nariño region is noted to produce velvety, fruit-forward, and pleasantly citrusy coffees. Couple this with the Geisha variety, and the result is a delectable cup that pays homage to both a celebrated growing region and a coveted, highly sought after coffee variety. The cup profile is a picture of elegance with tasting notes of star fruit, jasmine, pink champagne, lemon sorbet, white florals, and peach tea. We highly recommend for all lovers of the classic washed Geisha profile.

Nilson began coffee farming over 20 years ago and currently lives and works on the farm alongside his wife and their two children. The farm is dedicated exclusively to coffee production, where Nilson cultivates Caturra and Geisha coffee varieties with the clear intention of enhancing both his washed and natural processing methods in order to create exemplary cup profiles while promoting sustainable farming practices.

Unparalleled quality, a human story, and sustainability – that’s our coffee philosophy.

Unparalleled quality. We won’t buy a coffee unless we know that it will inspire you.
A human story. Often times a producer’s story gets lost in the coffee supply chain. It’s our focus to provide a seed to cup experience, honoring everyone involved.
Sustainability. We purchase sustainable coffees directly from producers and through brokers who share our goal of making coffee a sustainable commodity. Financially and environmentally, the coffees we purchase seek balance.
