Simmos and Scenery have been working together since shortly after Simmos opened on Fish Island. Three firsts come together in this release: Simmos’ first birthday and first collaboration coffee, featuring a new lot from Daisy and Fredy Acevedo at Finca El Encanto. Two years ago, their coffee was the first Gesha Scenery ever bought - and this year’s harvest brings the first honey process Gesha they’ve produced for export.
Daisy and Fredy believe the farm has reached a special moment. The trees are more mature, the shade canopy has expanded and risen, and the topsoil is denser, creating a more balanced environment that’s reflected in the cup quality. Their mill setup is seriously impressive, and by developing their own local roasting setup and QC lab alongside their work with LaREB has seen their quality go from strength to strength. If you could only take one coffee to a desert island to drink for the rest of your life - we think this Gesha would be the one.
We’re tasting:
Super floral aromatics of jasmine, chrysanthemum and bergamot. In the cup it’s peach boba tea, bergamot marmalade & orange blossom, with a bright juicy acidity and honeyed mouthfeel.
200g bag - Whole Beans
