    A nice Gesha. Amazing how the varietal varies from region to region. I feel like this one is a little bit less floral and drinks more like something between an Ethiopian and a Kenyan. Medium mouth feel with a strawberry note and very subtle jasmine.

    I thought this was a good but not as exciting as other geshas.

More Details

Roast Level: Light
Light roast coffee is a delicately roasted coffee that retains more of the beans' natural flavors and characteristics. Light-roasted coffees have bright acidity, complex fruit, and floral notes. Light roast coffee does not have less caffeine than darker roasts because caffeine levels remain stable during roasting.
Bean Source Country: El Salvador
The unique flavor profiles of Salvadorian coffees often feature notes of chocolate, caramel, and tropical fruit, with bright acidity, making them a favorite among connoisseurs. The coffee-growing areas of El Salvador are characterized by volcanic slopes, high altitudes, and fertile soil, providing ideal conditions for the cultivation of high-quality coffee beans.
Bean Source Region: Usulutan
Usulután coffee is deeply influenced by the terroir of its eastern El Salvador origin, a region distinguished by its volcanic soils and a distinctive microclimate. These volcanic soils, rich in minerals and nutrients, lend Usulután beans a unique depth and complexity of flavor. The balance of rainfall, altitude, and the shadowing canopy of native trees further refine its character, producing a coffee that boasts a medium to full body with an undertone of chocolate and caramel. The mild citrus acidity can be attributed to the nuanced soil pH levels, while the silky mouthfeel is a testament to the perfect harmony of the region's climate and terrain.
