## What the Brand Says

> Guatemala — Santa Irene Geisha Provenance The fourth release in our 10-Year Series continues a theme of finding exceptional flavour beyond the expected. A returning favourite from Santa Irene that showcases the quality of Geisha emerging from Guatemala, a country not typically associated with this varietal. Complex and expressive, this lot was sourced through our decade-long partnership with Coffee Bird. Explore our full 10-Year series. Process A natural process shaped by the conditions in Cobán, where climate plays a defining role in how the coffee is grown and dried. Instead of a defined dry season, the region experiences consistent mist and rainfall – known locally as chipi-chipi – for much of the year. This creates dense, moisture-rich soils and a staggered flowering cycle, both of which contribute to the cup profile. Keeping intervention low allows these environmental factors to come through clearly. Ripe cherries are carefully selected and dried slowly. The result is a Geisha with defined structure, bright fruit, floral aromatics and a clean, tea-like finish that sets it apart from more typical Guatemalan profiles.
