Marisela’s Gesha Espresso

This lot highlights the exceptional work and collaboration between talented caficultores and our long-term partner, La Real Expedición Botánica (LaReb), famous from many of our other releases.

LaReb is a producer-owned export cooperative and movement dedicated to developing decolonized supply chains, operating outside traditional multinational pathways. Their mission deeply resonates with us. By sharing collective knowledge, financing, quality control, and export processes, LaReb members can define their own terms of engagement. Working with Herbert and the team is incredibly refreshing, and we look forward to strengthening this relationship in the years to come.

Marisela’s Gesha

The Sánchez family’s small estate is located in El Portal, Palestina. This land, granted to Marisela’s parents by the Colombian government in the 1950s, has been dedicated to coffee cultivation ever since. Huila, the region where the estate is located, is renowned for producing some of the world’s finest coffees.

As the estate transitioned to the second generation, the land was divided into smaller plots, each managed by Marisela’s siblings and extended family. The main processing and drying station remains at Marisela’s home. Marisela’s family has strong ties to the community. Her father, Orlando, served two terms as Mayor of Palestina around the early 2000s.

LaReb’s commitment to collective processing and quality knowledge shines through in lots like these. Extended fermentation steps are carefully executed to enhance the fruit-forward characteristics in the cup while maintaining a clean, washed profile—vibrant and expressive, with no trace of acetic acid or funk. The result is a cup that captures the essence of Marisela’s expertise and LaReb’s mission, with the volume turned up on flavor.

FORM vs FUNCTION vs LESS WASTE

We love good packaging design, but not waste. That’s why we aim for a balance between aesthetics and sustainability. Finding food-safe solutions that work across local and international recycling systems isn’t easy, but we take it seriously. For us, reuse, reduce, recycle is more than just a label.

When ordering coffee, you can choose from three packaging types:

A.M.O.C. JAR

Made from fully recyclable PET. Lightweight, durable, and made to be reused endlessly.

REFILL

A low-waste option, vacuum-packed in thin, food-grade PP without a valve or zipper. About 40% lighter than standard bags and easier to recycle. These are not retail-friendly and may lose vacuum in transit—this doesn’t affect quality. Transfer to a container after opening. Not freezer-safe unless portioned first.

KILO BAG

For larger orders, we use high-barrier packaging that protects freshness and is recyclable under certain conditions. We chose it for both performance and environmental impact.

You’ll find more on our packaging choices and sustainability approach on the about page.

ESPRESSO VS FILTER ROAST

Our filter roasts are designed for clarity and expression, but they’re great for both filter and espresso brewing. In fact, we often prefer the brighter, more expressive profile they bring to espresso.

Espresso roasts, on the other hand, are specifically developed for espresso brewing only. We don’t recommend using them for filter methods, as they’re tailored for higher extraction and a more classic cup profile.

Choose based on your taste and brew method, but know we stand behind both.

ROAST DATE

All our coffees are shipped as fresh as possible, typically within a few days of roasting. We don’t sit on a lot of stock and roast multiple times a week, so what you receive has been roasted recently, usually no longer than a 7-10 days before shipping, but it could also be roasted and shipped the same day.

You’ll find the exact roast date printed on the label. We recommend resting the coffee for a few days after roasting to allow it to degas and open up in flavour.
