Gesha Bloom - Washed Process, Medium Roast

This Gesha variety coffee is sourced from select Colombian farms and processed using the washed method to preserve its distinctive aromatic and flavor characteristics. The coffee presents notes of lemongrass, floral elements, and honeydew, with a creamy body and complex flavor profile.

Gesha is recognized within the specialty coffee industry for its unique sensory attributes and limited commercial availability. The washed process removes the fruit and mucilage before drying, enhancing clarity and allowing the variety's inherent floral and tropical fruit notes to remain prominent in the cup.

The medium roast level is selected to maintain the Gesha's delicate flavor compounds while developing sufficient body and sweetness. Each lot is handpicked at optimal ripeness and roasted in small batches to preserve quality from harvest through preparation.

Generational tradition, difficult varieties, and the patience behind true specialty coffee

El Cielo is a family farm located at 1600 mslm in the coffee axis of Risaralda, where coffee cultivation has been passed down through generations. The family’s philosophy has always been the same: grow with integrity, protect the land, and pursue the highest possible quality, even when that means choosing the slower, more difficult path.

One of their greatest commitments is cultivating Gesha, a variety known worldwide for its floral, tea‑like profile — but also for being one of the most demanding coffees to grow.

Gesha trees require:

  • More shade and careful nutrition
  • Greater protection from pests and diseases
  • Longer maturation times
  • Selective harvesting to avoid damaging the delicate cherries

Because of this, many producers avoid Gesha. But El Cielo embraces the challenge. They refuse to mix lower‑quality beans into their lots, even when yields are small. They choose slower fermentation and drying methods to preserve the variety’s complexity. And they accept that specialty coffee demands something most people never see: patience.

For this family, coffee is not just a crop, it is a legacy. Their goal is to keep this tradition alive and share it with people who value the work behind every cup.
