What the brand says
Felipe Arcila is a fourth-generation coffee grower and co-founder of Cofinet, a coffee producer and exporter in Colombia. Jardines del Edén is Cofinet's flagship farm, dedicated to growing exotic coffee varieties and experimental processing.
This Red Gesha lot was processed using carbonic maceration, a technique borrowed from winemaking. Whole coffee cherries are sealed in an airtight container filled with CO₂ gas, creating an anaerobic environment where natural yeasts drive fermentation. This breaks down cell walls and draws out intense, complex flavours.
The result is an extraordinarily sweet and layered coffee with vibrant strawberry, orange, and rose notes.
