Mexico, Silvia Herrera, Gesha Natural

This limited-release natural Gesha from Silvia Herrera, an award-winning young producer in the highlands of Chiapas, offers a vibrant, fruit-forward cup with soft sweetness and a silky structure. Silvia is a second-generation coffee farmer, and the first individual producer we've partnered with in this region. Her meticulous approach results in coffees that are consistently recognized among Mexico’s best. Notes: Guava, Persimmon, Milk Chocolate

Produced by Silvia Herrera in the Chiapas region of Mexico, this lot showcases the distinct potential of the Gesha varietal when cultivated in Mexican soil. As a natural-processed coffee, the cherries are dried with the fruit intact, a technique that often imparts a syrupy body and amplified sweetness to the final cup. While Sightglass Coffee highlights specific notes of guava, persimmon, and milk chocolate, the experience of such a profile can be further explored by referencing the flavor wheel to identify the nuances between stone fruit acidity and cocoa-toned finishes. This offering represents a compelling intersection of meticulous farm-level processing and the inherent elegance of the Gesha plant, providing a unique look at how regional terroir influences one of the world’s most celebrated coffee varieties.
