Gesha Carbonic Maceration Decaf - La Cumparsita

OUR IMPRESSIONS
Mango notes leads the cup, followed by the deep sweetness of panela and almond marzipan. As it cools, a boozy cherry-liqueur quality comes through, while fresh nasturtium adding a delicate floral, slightly peppery finish.

Syrupy, honey-like and sweet, with enough florality to keep the cup lifted. We recommend the V60/Origami for this beautiful Gesha Decaf.

HOW PROCESSING IMPACTS FLAVOUR
Sebastián and Eliana bring their backgrounds in agronomy to every stage of production. Sebastián selects cherries at 22° Brix before they’re floated and sorted by the farm’s female workforce. The cherries are then sealed in bioreactor tanks for 92 hours, fermenting without oxygen, then slowly dried for seven days and stabilized for one month before hulling and decaffeination.

That controlled, oxygen-free fermentation helps build the concentrated fruit and sweetness we find in the cup: ripe mango, panela and a subtle boozy quality, while the Gesha’s more delicate floral character remains present underneath.

The coffee then undergoes natural sugarcane decaffeination using high-mountain spring water and ethyl acetate derived from sugarcane molasses.

♻ Designed as a collector's item or to be reused, your tin was made to stick around long after the coffee is gone.

CARE INTRUCTIONS
♡ To keep it in good condition, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. When needed, wipe the inside and outside with a damp cloth rather than soaking it in water. We recommend avoiding full submersion and dishwasher use, as both can lead to rust over time.

Allow the tin to dry completely before reuse, paying special attention to the lid, rolled edges and sealing components where moisture can accumulate.

⚠ Do not remove, puncture or tamper with the one-way degassing valve located on the top of the tin. The valve helps release excess gas from freshly roasted coffee while limiting oxygen exposure.

○ Under the screw-top lid, you will find a silicone freshness seal. Please do not remove or modify it. Keep it clean and dry, and ensure it is properly seated after each use to help maintain freshness and prevent unwanted moisture from entering the tin.

⚠ For the best coffee quality, avoid storing the tin in the refrigerator or freezer. Temperature changes can create condensation inside the container, which may affect both the coffee and the tin over time.
