Estela Pittí - Finca Los Cenizos - Geisha Natural Cold Fermentation - Légendes

The coffees in the Légendes collection are only roasted once a week, guaranteeing a very fresh roast at all times. As a result, the time between order and dispatch can be up to 8 working days.

Sourcing note

Estela Pittí is gentle, unassuming, and humble. This stands in stark contrast to some of the male coffee stars in Chiriquí. Nevertheless, she remains one of the top producers among Panama’s elite, as evidenced by her second-place finish this year at Best of Panama. Los Cenizos is a unique farm, set in a magnificent canyon where there are more flowers planted than coffee trees. This lot is a highly successful prototype, anaerobically fermented at a cool, regulated temperature achieved by immersing the fermentation drums in the stream nestled at the bottom of the canyon. One of a kind.

A long ratio with this coffee offers a floral, elegant cup. Notes of dried jasmine and cooked apricot. The bright, juicy acidity is reminiscent of nectarine, and the body is velvety and buttery.
