Colombia Juan Martín Geisha 7oz
$20
Since 2016, we have been collaborating with the specialty coffee operator Banexport to source coffee from smallholder growers in Cauca. This coffee is something altogether different — a washed Geisha from Finca San Martín, an experimental farm where Banexport works to identify the best growing and post-harvest practices for each of the varieties it has planted there.
