ALEXANDER HERNÁNDEZ, COLOMBIA, FILTER

This washed Gesha comes from Alexander Hernandez’s 10-hectare farm in Pitalito, Huila. Over the years, Alexander has honed his process with dual 50-hour aerobic fermentations for both cherries and depulped coffee, resulting in consistently exceptional cups.

His dedication to quality extends beyond the farm. Alexander’s family plays an integral role in every stage of production, from cupping and roasting to providing support for seasonal workers. Organic nutrition and reintroduced shade trees contribute to the health of the farm, while careful water treatment protects the environment.

Flavors of raspberry and orange blossom highlight the precision and care in Alexander’s approach to cultivating Gesha.
