HOT ! SEY - Neto La Margarita - Reserve Lot | Peru - Washed, Darkroom Dried - Yellow Gesha

SEY COFFEE is located in Brooklyn, United States

From SEY

Each year we meet many new and inspiring producers, but Neto stands out. After an introduction from Pepe Jijón, we visited his farm this fall—and were absolutely blown away. In the cup we find jasmine, blackberry, mandarin, and star fruit.

ABOUT NETO

Neto might be the most inspiring young producer we had the honor of meeting this year. He is growing coffee fully organically using regenerative practices, exploring darkroom drying, and—most importantly—producing some of the best coffees we have tasted, period. We cannot wait to return to his farm next season and continue following his remarkable journey.

ABOUT YELLOW GESHA

*We had never encountered a Yellow Gesha prior to this season, but several producers in Peru are now referring to this distinct yellow-fruiting coffee by that name. While color mutations do occur in coffee, none of these lots have yet been genetically confirmed to be Gesha. We have submitted samples for analysis and are eagerly awaiting the results. In the meantime, we will continue using the name Yellow Gesha—with an appropriate asterisk.
