wilton benitez's coffee comes from cauca, colombia, grown across a gesha and caturra blend and processed anaerobically, which means the cherries ferment without oxygen before drying. that process pulls out the bright, layered character you'll find in the cup: lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest sit alongside red apple, jasmine, and floral aromatics, with caramel, honey, and honeycomb rounding out the finish. the combination of gesha's delicate florals and the anaerobic fermentation makes this a good candidate for filter brewing, where clarity and aromatics come through cleanly. use a lower brew temperature, around 88 to 92°c, to keep the citrus precise and avoid masking the floral notes.
