🏆 Mt. Zulu Gesha Carbonic Maceration – Silver Winner, Global Coffee Awards 2025
Mt. Zulu Gesha Carbonic Maceration Process is a rare and award-winning coffee from La Cumparsita Farm in Caldas, Colombia, grown at high altitude (1,800 meters) and roasted at origin to preserve its authenticity.
Using a meticulous carbonic maceration process, the ripe Gesha cherries are sealed in a controlled, oxygen-free environment and undergo a 120-hour fermentation with carbonic gas — a technique inspired by wine-making. This unique method enhances the coffee’s complexity, developing deeper, more vibrant flavors and a refined aromatic profile.
Processed with natural cinnamon and pineapple fermentation, this Gesha delivers an exceptional cup: bright, layered, and full of tropical sweetness. With an SCA score of 86.75, it reveals prominent cinnamon notes, yellow fruits, citrus, panela, and subtle hints of chocolate and spice — perfect for those seeking a sophisticated and distinctive coffee experience.
Recognized with a Silver Award at the Global Coffee Awards 2025 (Filter – Experimental Processing Method), this lot exemplifies innovation, precision, and the artistry of Colombian coffee.
