Anselmo Caldon Alvira

$32.75
Notes of Plum, Jasmine, Citrus
Anselmo Caldon Alvira's entry into the 2024 Copa de Oro last fall was one of only two gesha variety lots to reach the final table of fifteen coffees on the last day of the competition. Both geshas, including Anselmo's, come from the celebrated growing region of La Plata in western Huila. As one might expect of a gesha profile, we find an array of jasmine and lavender-like florals both aromatically and in the cup. Additionally, flavors of sweet cherry, yellow plum, and gentle citrus add nuanced depth and balance to the profile.

Anselmo Caldon Alvira

Although we've purchased lots in the Copa de Oro competition annually since the inaugural Copa Suaceña competition in the fall of 2019, this marks the first time we're featuring a gesha variety winner. Over the years, we have witnessed many coffee varieties come and go as the competition has evolved, but the gesha variety has surprisingly only appeared more prominently in the last couple of years. As always, we are fascinated by the various ways the gesha variety can express its best qualities depending on the climate its grown in and the decisions of the producer. This lot is an excellent example.
