— The Barn
Context
Produced by Diego Hidalgo in Costa Rica, La Bandera Gesha represents a meticulous approach to specialty coffee cultivation. This lot features the Gesha varietal, a plant widely celebrated in the industry for its distinct, tea-like elegance and complex aromatic profile. By utilizing a natural processing method, the producer allows the coffee cherry to dry with the bean intact, a technique that often encourages a more pronounced sweetness and a heavier, fruit-forward body in the final cup.
The Barn (/shop/roasters/the-barn) has highlighted strawberry as the primary tasting note for this specific release. When evaluating such nuanced profiles, enthusiasts often consult the flavor wheel to better identify and categorize the subtle sensory characteristics inherent in high-quality harvests. This coffee serves as a compelling example of how specific processing choices and varietal selection can shape the unique identity of a single-origin offering.
