by phil & sebastian coffee roasters - simmons building cafe · calgary, canada
this is mi finquita geisha natural, an anaerobic panama from phil & sebastian coffee roasters - simmons building cafe.
as a geisha processed anaerobically, expect pronounced floral and fruit-forward qualities with added fermentation complexity from the low-oxygen drying environment. the natural process typically contributes a fuller body and sweeter, riper fruit character than washed coffees.
it's a geisha variety grown in panama and processed using anaerobic natural method, where whole cherries ferment in sealed, oxygen-limited containers before being dried, concentrating sugars and developing deeper fruit notes.
a filter or pour-over method works well for a coffee like this, as it preserves clarity and allows the floral, fruit-forward character of an anaerobic geisha to come through without distortion. keep water temperature moderate, around 90-93°c, to avoid over-extraction.
