Hi there -
Get excited: a brand new Gesha is in the house!!! It's a true summer romance with the exquisite, washed Colombian Gesha Los Robles, a super-limited new arrival that tastes like aromatic jasmine and summery peach tea.
Tastes Like: Lemongrass, Jasmine, Mandarin Orange, Peach
Curator's Notes: Did you know that this year is the 20th anniversary of the "discovery" of the Gesha varietal at the 2004 Best of Panama coffee competition? After two decades, its popularity shows no signs of slowing down. Synonymous with luxury, this rare, hugely-popular bean still holds a special place in our coffee-loving hearts, and I will never NOT get excited when one like this crosses my path! Los Robles is a superb example of the classic, beloved Gesha profile - light and delicate, with a soft, rounded vanilla body, intense florals in the nose and the cup, jasmine, lemongrass, orange blossom, some licorice spice, and a mouth-watering array of sweet citrus, dried apricot, and summery peach tea in its lingering, super-clean finish. One sip, and it's easy to understand why washed Geshas are some of the most sought-after coffees in the world - a true unicorn of coffee!
What makes this exquisite coffee even better is that it's very clearly super, super fresh. Unlike most coffees, that (unfortunately) can take months to arrive into the U.S. by shipping container, Devocion's coffees are flown in directly from origin, meaning that their beans can arrive at their roastery within only days of harvest. This is the coffee equivalent of a fresh, farmers' market tomato: peak flavor, utterly delicious. High-end Gesha microlots like this one are rare and exclusive, and Devocion only has less than 100 bags available, so if you're intrigued, act fast! Don't miss your chance to treat yourself, or someone you love, to a sip of pure coffee luxury.
Bottom Line: You'll love this coffee if you love peach tea, St. Germain cocktails, or fresh-cut flowers in vintage vases.
