The Colombia Gutierrez Gesha 48 Hour Natural, sourced by Olympia Coffee Roasting, represents a meticulous collaboration with the Gutierrez family in San Sebastian De La Plata Huila. This lot highlights the Gesha varietal, which is widely celebrated in the specialty coffee industry for its distinct floral and tea-like clarity. By utilizing an anaerobic natural fermentation period of 48 hours, the producers have influenced the final cup profile, which the roaster describes as floral, berry, and candy-forward.

While processing methods like anaerobic fermentation are often employed to amplify specific enzymatic expressions, the inherent characteristics of the Gesha plant provide a unique foundation for these complex profiles.
