la noria green tip gesha is a specialty lot from the loja region of ecuador, roasted by sk coffee out of whittier. the coffee is a gesha varietal processed anaerobically, meaning the cherries ferment without oxygen before drying, a method that tends to amplify floral and fruit characteristics. in the cup, expect a pronounced lemon quality, bright and clean. because anaerobic geshas can be delicate and expressive, a pour-over or filter method at a moderate temperature will help highlight the citrus clarity without muddying the complexity. dialing in grind size carefully is worth the effort here.
