2026 Neto; La Margarita, Yellow Gesha Reserve Lot - Peru

Each year we meet many new and inspiring producers, but Neto stands out. After an introduction from Pepe Jijón, we visited his farm this fall—and were absolutely blown away. In the cup we find jasmine, blackberry, mandarin, and star fruit.

The 2026 Neto; La Margarita, Yellow Gesha Reserve Lot represents a distinct offering from Peru, cultivated by producer Neto. This specific release features the Yellow Gesha varietal, a plant type often prized by enthusiasts for its potential for floral, tea-like clarity and complex acidity. Roasted by Sey Coffee, this lot is characterized by a vibrant profile featuring notes of jasmine, blackberry, mandarin, and star fruit.

When evaluating such nuanced profiles, it can be helpful to reference a flavor wheel to better categorize the interplay between the delicate floral aromatics and the bright, citrus-forward fruit qualities present in the cup. While the specific characteristics of this lot are defined by its unique terroir and processing, the Yellow Gesha varietal remains a standout in the specialty coffee landscape for its ability to deliver a sophisticated and layered sensory experience.
