Coffee Details

About This Coffee

Anibal Sanchez grows this coffee at La Siria, a five-hectare farm in the Huila region of Colombia. The land passed from his grandfather to his father and then to Anibal and his sister. For years only caturra grew here, until a family connection brought Panamanian Gesha seeds to the farm.

That decision paid off. In 2021, Anibal took 2nd place at the Colombian Cup of Excellence with this very Gesha — one of the most respected awards in specialty coffee. The lot is named “Flor Blanca” after the white flowers of the coffee tree.

Ripe cherries are hand-picked and sorted by density. After a thorough washing, the beans dry slowly on raised beds for 20 to 24 days, locking in the clean sweetness and floral aromatics that define this cup.

How to Brew Colombia Flor Blanca Gesha

If the cup tastes thin or sour, grind a little finer; if it turns bitter or drying, grind coarser. Small steps make a big difference with a delicate Gesha.

How Much Coffee Is in a Bag?

Using the 16g filter dose above, a 150g bag makes around 9 cups, a 500g bag around 31 cups, and a 1kg bag around 62 cups. Gesha this rare rewards slow, attentive brewing, so savour each cup rather than rushing the bag.
