This Special Reserve Coffee collection Includes two exceptional geishas from La Palma & El Tucan:

  • 100g Geisha Bio-Natural C046
  • 100g Geisha Bio-Washed C041

The Bio-Innovation Natural Coffee process begins with farm-sourced microorganisms kickstarting a precise fermentation (72-100 hours). Next, an extended drying phase (40-60 days) deepens the coffee’s complexity. As it interacts with its environment the coffee blossoms with vibrant fruity and tropical notes.

For the Bio-Innovation Washed Coffee process begins with a two-stage fermentation: the first lasting 72-100 hours, followed by a second of 10-36 hours where the mucilage is preserved unlocking vibrant, complex flavours. The journey ends with a two-phase drying process - slow solar, then mechanical for stability.

  • Bioinnovation Natural C046: Jasmine, yellow peach and brown sugar

Producer: La Palma y El Tucan

La Palma & El Tucán is a farm nestled in Zipacón’s humidity-challenged highlands, this estate thrives on symbiosis: permaculture gardens feed coffee trees, biochar enriches volcanic soils, and shade-grown Gesha flourishes under a biodiverse canopy of native flora. Of their 10,332 Gesha plants, each one, cultivated since 2012, bears the marks of a relentless pursuit of excellence, overcoming 90% humidity through El Niño’s fleeting dry spells to create these experimental lots.

Here, coffee coexists with purpose. Visitors sip Gesha in forest cabins mere meters from where it grows, while Felipe Sardi’s team blends ecological stewardship with laboratory precision. This is coffee as an act of defiance against convention.

Processing Method: Bioinnovation Natural C046 - Bioinnovation Washed C041

La Palma & El Tucán are deeply committed to pushing the boundaries of coffee processing through innovative and scientifically-driven methods, this has resulted in the development of novel processing methods they coined Bio-Innovation. The Bio-Natural and Bio-Washed processes are the culmination of years of research, marrying microbiology with meticulous farming to redefine what coffee can achieve.
