La Bandera Costa Rica coffee processed using a Kenyan washed protocol. Cherries were depulped, then underwent double fermentation with two water soaks and extended washing to break down mucilage. Dried for 12 days on shaded raised beds with hourly turning. Geisha variety produces a clean, expressive cup with prominent florals, bright citrus, and refined sweetness.
Based in Philadelphia, Poem Coffee Roasters operates as a tiny boutique roasting company dedicated to ultra small batch production at the highest level. Their entire production schedule revolves around a single roasting day each week, with all coffees roasted to order exclusively on Tuesdays. This practice allows them to capture seasonally sourced specialty beans that reflect fleeting points in time, creating a limited and intentional coffee experience that celebrates the unique characteristics of each harvest.
