Elevation and Terroir

The combination of elevation and terroir imparts a distinctive character to the beans, resulting in a flavor profile that is both complex and harmonious.
The Monteverde Farm Legacy
Monteverde Farm’s journey began in 1941 when Alejandro Gutierrez, a second-generation coffee producer, discovered the remote yet fertile lands of southern Tolima. Despite the challenging access, he recognized the potential of the region to produce exceptional coffee. Today, the farm is managed by Alejandro’s eldest grandson, Johan Gutierrez Faya, who seamlessly blends traditional values with modern agricultural practices to continue the family legacy of excellence.
Complex Honey Fermentation Process
One of the standout features of the Colombia Geisha COE #21 2023 is its intricate honey fermentation process. This meticulous method involves leaving part of the coffee cherry pulp to ferment on the beans for 72 hours under controlled conditions. The beans are then dried on raised beds in a specialized greenhouse for approximately 20 days. This process enhances the coffee’s natural sweetness and imparts unique flavor notes that set it apart from other coffees.
