What Ripsnorter says about this coffee

Producer: Finca Nogales Farm: La Falda Origin: Colombia Region: Huila Varietal: Geisha Process: Natural Fermentation: Classic Natural Altitude: 1,770 masl Tasting Notes: Nectarine, Dark Cherry, Honey

This one is all about quiet precision and controlled beauty.

From La Falda at Finca Nogales, this Geisha is grown at 1,770 masl, coming from just 2,000 trees with an annual production of around 2,000 kilos. Small scale, but everything here is pushed to the highest level of detail.

It starts at harvest, where only the ripest, deepest red cherries are hand selected at peak maturity. For this lot, they take it a step further. The coffee is picked only during the absolute peak of the harvest window, when sugars and aromatics are at their highest concentration. That moment defines the clarity and elegance you taste in the cup.

Post-harvest, the cherries are washed with treated water to remove any surface impurities, followed by a flotation step. The dense, fully developed cherries sink and are kept, while anything underripe or defective is removed. From there, the coffee moves through fermentation before entering one of the most defining stages of the process.

Where each fact came from

A further 8 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
