This Gesha comes from the Santa Felisa Farm in Guatemala. Established in 1904, Santa Felisa Farm has maintained the founding values of integrity, quality, loyalty and justice. The Farm is now run by the fourth generation siblings under the guidance of the visionary agronomist, ecologist & Q-Grader Anabella Meneses.
Dwarf Gesha coffee is a shorter, more compact variety of the Gesha (or Geisha) coffee plant. Gesha is highly prized for its exceptional flavor profile, often featuring floral, fruity, and tea-like notes. The dwarf version of this plant maintains the same high-quality beans but is easier to cultivate and harvest due to its smaller size. This makes it more manageable for farmers, while still producing the premium coffee that Gesha is known for.
Since 2010, Anabella has been researching innovative methods to develop different flavors during the fermentation and drying process. This dedication and passion was rewarded with the 1st place prize in the 2017 Cup of Excellence.
We are proud of being partners with smallholder farmers like Santa Felisa. Their commitment to quality, gender inclusion, the environment, and the communities around the farm inspires us to keep going forward.
