An exceptional Gesha from Honduras, recognised with 4th place in the prestigious Cup of Excellence competition.

Produced by Fabio Antonio Caballero at Las Virginias in Marcala, La Paz, this coffee represents the level of quality and precision that has made Honduras an increasingly important origin for exceptional specialty coffees.

Fabio Antonio Caballero is an established producer with a long history in specialty coffee. His approach combines careful cultivation, selective harvesting and controlled processing, allowing the characteristics of each variety to be expressed with clarity.

This particular Gesha undergoes a 48-hour anaerobic fermentation before being washed, a process that adds depth and complexity while maintaining the elegance and structure expected from the variety.

The result is a beautifully balanced coffee with notes of toffee apple and dried plum. A rich, concentrated sweetness is complemented by a refined acidity and a layered flavour profile that continues to develop as the cup cools.

While Gesha is often associated with delicate florals and tea-like characteristics, Las Virginias takes a slightly different direction. It offers a more rounded, fruit-driven expression, combining the elegance of the variety with a distinctive sweetness and depth.

A remarkable coffee with a well-deserved place among the highest-ranked lots in the Cup of Excellence.

Very limited stock.

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.

These pair well with your taste
