This coffee comes to Cult via Fazenda Mio. Ana Luiza hosted a cupping with us at our cafe earlier this year and the Gesha lot really stuck out. This coffee has a great fruit presence and those Jasmin notes you'd come to expect from a Gesha variety, it also had an incredibly creamy body we really enjoyed.

This coffee was processed as a honey method where it was mechanically de-pulped from the cherries at the wet mill while ensuring the mucilage stays attached to the beans. The sticky part of the cherry contains high amounts of sugar, resulting in a pronounced body and developed, chocolaty sweetness in Mio's coffee.
In the images above you will see a map of the farm with a highlighted location of this lot as well as a list of names who had a hand in making this coffee a reality. The other image is a diagram of the process from picking to warehousing in the UK, before being hauled across to us in Edinburgh, Scotland .
