This is a Natural processed Geisha coffee from Bolivia, grown on the Rodriguez Family Farm in the Caranavi region at 1500-1650 meters altitude. The coffee is cultivated amongst native trees and shade on plots within the Los Rodriguez farms, with efforts to conserve biodiversity. After harvesting, the cherries are washed and floated before being dried on raised beds for 3-4 days, followed by a week on sunbeds where they are turned every 30 minutes in the morning and hourly in the afternoon. The cherries are then finished in mechanical dryers that recreate day and night conditions to ensure consistent drying. The coffee is bagged in Ecotact and Jute bags and sent to the dry mill in La Paz.
