Context

This Geisha varietal comes from Bolivia's Takesi producer and arrives washed, a processing method that typically emphasizes clarity and acidity. The roaster's profile highlights nectarine and floral notes alongside black tea—a combination that speaks to Geisha's reputation for delicate, tea-like complexity. Geisha coffees are prized for their aromatic precision, and this lot's tasting notes suggest the varietal's characteristic brightness has been preserved through careful roasting by Monogram Coffee. The black tea descriptor adds structure to what would otherwise be purely fruit-forward, creating a layered sensory experience that rewards slow exploration.
