From the roaster

A washed Geisha from the Los Rodriguez family in Bolivia, a lot from Finca Alasitas that we selected on our annual visit. Florals lead, then lemon blossom, with white tea on a long clean finish. Four years into working with this family now, and the washed Geishas are the ones we look forward to most each year.

Geisha varietal coffees are prized for their delicate, tea-like character and floral complexity, qualities that align with Dayglow's tasting notes of florals, lemon blossom, and white tea. The washed processing method typically emphasizes clarity and brightness, allowing the varietal's intrinsic characteristics to shine through—a fitting approach for a coffee highlighting such nuanced aromatics. This lot showcases how origin, varietal selection, and careful post-harvest handling combine to create a refined cup profile.
