— La Cabra
Context
La Cabra, the Danish specialty roaster known for its commitment to clarity and precision, presents La Catarata from Peru — a washed Geisha that sits at an intriguing intersection of varietal character and process. Geisha is widely celebrated for its delicate, floral, and tea-like transparency, qualities that a clean washed process tends to preserve by removing the fruit layer before fermentation can influence the cup profile.
Peru remains a quietly compelling origin, increasingly recognized for producing refined lots as more producers invest in processing infrastructure. A washed Geisha from this context invites curiosity: the flavor wheel territory of lemongrass and stone fruit suggests both the aromatic lift characteristic of the varietal and a gentle ripeness that points to careful cherry selection. Together, these elements frame La Catarata as a coffee built around elegance rather than intensity.
