Since first stepping into the world of coffee production, the Bayter family have been making innovative leaps at their farm. This special Rarity combines the famous flavour of Gesha with the Koji natural process, pioneered by Elias and Shady.

After harvest, Koji - a fungus that grows on rice - is introduced to the coffee cherries to aid fermentation. The result is a profile with incredibly deep flavour and distinct texture

Sebastian N. ★★★★★

The koji process gives this gesha a sweetness I've never tasted in a Colombian coffee—it's like honey and ripe fruit folded into the cup. Brewed it on my V60 and the clarity at 1500 meters really lets the varietal shine through. Easily the most unique filter coffee I've had this year.

Elizabeth C. ★★★★★

The filter roast handles beautifully—no bitterness, and the Gesha’s floral notes really come through at 1500 meters. The koji fermentation adds a subtle, sweet complexity I haven’t tasted in other Colombians. Finished the bag faster than I’d like to admit.

Jacob ★★★★★

The Gesha varietal at 1500 meters gives this filter roast a delicate, floral sweetness that lingers between sips. Natural koji processing adds a subtle fermented depth without overpowering the cup. I've already ordered another bag.
