Terraza is the farm owned and operated by Juliana Guevara and Wbeimar Lasso, who bring you this Gesha. This exceptional farm functions as a dedicated variety garden, showcasing their commitment to coffee cultivation excellence, this Gesha is one of their most prestigious offerings.

Wbeimar Lasso brings significant credentials to his name, including his title as Colombian Cup Tasters Champion, his background as an agro-industrial engineer, and his heritage as a third-generation coffee producer. His reputation for innovation in processing methods—particularly his sophisticated multi-fermentation techniques implemented across small farms in Huila.

What distinguishes this particular offering is its return to traditional processing methods. This meticulously washed coffee demonstrates that extraordinary results can emerge from classical techniques when executed with precision. The process adheres to time-honored methods: coffee cherries undergo depulping, followed by a controlled fermentation period of 36-48 hours. The beans then experience an extended drying phase of 20-30 days, predominantly in shaded conditions. This approach highlights the inherent quality of the beans and the terroir, allowing the coffee's natural characteristics to develop fully without experimental processing interventions.
