Colombia La Maria Geisha Cup of Excellence #2
News
Introducing this year’s number 2 ranked Cup of Excellence coffee from COLOMBIA, La Maria and it’s a Geisha!
La Maria is a natural processed Geisha, roasted filter style. We’re tasting notes of juicy pineapple, finger-limes, strawberries accompanied by a clean, effervescent mouth-feel.
This coffee represents a new era of Colombian coffee, pushing the boundaries of a new variety and processing method which is not typically associated with the origin of Colombia. La Maria was a stand-out when we tasted it in Colombia in October and the fact it ranked overall No.2 in the competition is very exciting indeed!
La Maria is from innovative farmer Orlando Salzar and is wife. Orlando has worked as an Argonmist for many years, before renting land to fulfill a desire to grow his own Geisha coffee. The La Maria micro-lot represents his first harvest and given what he has achieved, we can expect to see much more from Orlando Salzar and family in coming years.
This rare coffee is available in all our Flagship Cafe’s, at a select group of our partner cafes and can be purchased online. Check out the details for these select partner cafes below.
