COLOMBIA | Angel Rojas Geisha

It has flavors of white grapes, ripe yellow peaches, and pears. It has a very clear and crisp flavor, and the clean cup stands out. It has a variety of complex stone fruit flavors and a smooth sweetness like honey.
The liquid is very pleasant to drink, and you can enjoy a very long aftertaste. This is an excellent cup that is just as good as the award-winning lot.

■ INFORMATION
This Geisha variety comes from the Planadas region in Tolima, one of the areas that importers are currently paying the most attention to. Planadas is not a rich region of the country, and was under guerrilla control until the early 2000s. It is difficult to reach the area without traveling more than four hours on unpaved roads and crossing streams.
However, once you arrive at the farm, you will be surprised by its high potential. Angel, the owner of this farm, originally focused on growing volume coffee, not competition coffee. However, he later entered the world of specialty coffee due to the influence of his brother, producer Jorge, who devotedly taught him everything he had learned.



Angel put all of these teachings into practice and won the top three in the COE in 2023 with a high score of 90.33. This coffee is a different harvest year from the COE-winning lot, harvested in January 2024. Although the harvest season has not yet begun, the quality is excellent.
