Pull & Pour Special Release 002 – Gesha Spirits

The delicious Colombian Gesha is the second special release of the Pull & Pour Coffee Club. Gesha Spiritsis sourced by Forest Coffee and grown at Wilder Lasso’s farm Bella Alejandría. The coffee underwent a200-hour double fermentation with submerged anaerobic fermentation in mucilage. This fermentation helps develop the coffee’s unique floral & citric profile. After fermentation, the coffee is dried in the sun for 18 days with mandarine peel & finally stabilized at his warehouse for 25 days before milling.

This coffee is truly a special one—and only available for one day through the Pull & Pour coffee club. Here’s an overview of what I’ve experienced with the coffee…

The aromatics are really where this coffee begins to shine. The bright citrus, lemon-lime aroma is stunning and is mixed with some hoppy floral notes and intense sweetness. The flavor is wild. At the start of each sip, it reminds me of a hazy IPA with malty, hoppy, and citrus notes. In the middle, I get a deep cereal-like sweetness that reminds me of Fruit Loops. As the coffee cooled the attributes evolve to feature a different prominence and variety of each flavor attribute. The coffee is so bright and energetic with a light and lively mouthfeel and sweet-toned structure. The coffee works well in every brew method I’ve tried, but a standard pour over is where I’ve been enjoying it most.

Overall I was so excited to be able to snag this coffee for a special release of the club. When cupping a series of many coffees from various producers, this one jumped off the cupping table and was such a clear winner. The coffee is extremely limited with only 100 jars available. To have a chance to pick up this special coffee, be sure to join the free Pull & Pour Coffee Club. If you missed this special release, more will be on the way—as well as many other amazing coffees.
