How does it taste

Yara selected this coffee during his visit in Bolivia last September. It was the highest scored coffee of all samples tasted (89 points). The intensity of flavors (peaches, tangerines) given by the geisha variety and washed processing with prolonged fermentation was truly exceptional.

Rodriguez family - pioneers of specialty coffee in Bolivia

This coffee comes from the Las Alasitas farm situated at the altitude of 1600 masl. The farm is run by the Rodriguez family. Their company Agricafe is trying to bring specialty coffee back to the country. They support a lot of farms around in order to replace coca farming. The Alasitas farm (which means "buy me" in the aboriginal language) is quite young. The family bought 20ha of land in 2014 in Caranavi region. Where they managed to build a processing station and a modern farm. They grow varieties of caturra, java and geisha.

Geisha

This geisha was processed using the fully-washed method with prolonged anaerobic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. After picking, the cherries were depulped and left in stainless steel tanks without access to oxygen for approx. 48 hours. Then, they were dried for 30 hours in special hot air dryers at a temperature of 40°C to a final moisture content of 11 %. This drying system is advantageous mainly because of the controlled environment and the possibility to influence the resulting taste by the speed of the drying time. The Rodriguez family uses industrial dehydrators manufactured for fruit industry.

The best way to nejoy this coffee is with V60.
