From the roaster

San Vicente Yogondoy Geisha is produced by six farmers in Oaxaca’s Sierra Sur, where coffee grows beneath native shade on forested slopes cooled by Pacific winds. Rooted in Zapotec traditions and communal practices like Tequio, the community has steadily improved both coffee quality and yields through years of investment in farm health and biodiversity.

Context

The Mexico Oaxaca Yogondoy Gesha represents a collaborative effort from six farmers located in the Sierra Sur region of Oaxaca. This lot highlights the potential of Mexican coffee production, specifically through the cultivation of the Gesha varietal. Known globally for its distinct profile, this variety is often sought after for its delicate, tea-like clarity and complex aromatics.

Processed using the washed method, this coffee emphasizes the inherent characteristics of the bean by removing the fruit flesh before drying. This technique typically results in a cleaner cup profile, allowing the nuanced qualities of the terroir to shine through. To better understand how these specific attributes might manifest in your cup, you can reference the flavor wheel for guidance on identifying subtle tasting notes. Sourced and roasted by Onyx Coffee Lab, this selection offers a unique look at how regional geography and careful processing influence the final experience of a high-quality harvest.
