Meet Milton Monroy, the mastermind behind this exceptional coffee from his renowned San Pedro farm in San Juan de la China. Milton's coffee journey began alongside his father, cultivating traditional varieties like Castillo and Caturra. But their world changed when they discovered the mesmerizing Gesha variety, instantly falling in love with its unparalleled flavors. They boldly planted 25% of their farm with Gesha, a decision they've never regretted. Milton's dedication to perfecting the processing of Gesha has paid off, earning his farm a spot as a consistent finalist in the Colombian Cup of Excellence. Together, we've crafted this Gesha capturing the essence of Milton's farm.

The journey of Moon Gesha coffee begins with the careful selection of ripe Gesha cherries in the highlands of Ibagué, Tolima, under the expertise of farmer Milton Monroy. The beans undergo an intricate dual fermentation process, starting with a 36-hour anaerobic pre-fermentation in cherry, followed by an additional 36-hour aerobic fermentation in muscilage after being depulped. This meticulous fermentation process enhances the coffee's vibrant and complex flavors. The beans are then dried using a mixed drying method, combining sun-drying on raised beds with mechanical drying, over a span of 20 days. To ensure optimal flavor development, the beans undergo a stabilization period of 10 days. The result is a coffee with a bright and creamy flavor profile, featuring notes of citric acid, lemongrass, tangerine, orange, and yellow fruits. Moon Gesha exemplifies the art of washed coffee processing, delivering a refined and unforgettable coffee experience.

Raúl is a fourth-generation coffee grower, born in 1973. His father, who worked for the National Coffee Federation, arrived in the lane of Gaitania, in Colombia’s Tolima region, in 1970. Later, he married Gilma Gutiérrez, Raúl’s mother, and they acquired 4 hectares of land where they began cultivating coffee.
In 2006, Raúl and his three brothers inherited the farm. Then, in 2008, together with his wife, Astrid Medina, they bought their brothers’ shares and became the owners of the farm. The farm is now run as a family business, with their son, daughter, granddaughter, and a nephew working alongside them. The farm currently has 60,000 coffee trees of varieties such as Caturra, Colombia, Castillo, Borbón Rosado, Gesha, and Papayo. -
The process for Gesha Oasis begins by depulping the coffee cherries and draining the beans, followed by an anaerobic fermentation in GrainPro bags for 36 hours. This oxygen-free fermentation environment encourages the development of deeper and more intricate flavors. After fermentation, the coffee is thoroughly washed, ensuring the removal of any remaining mucilage while maintaining the beans' essential qualities.
For the drying phase, the beans are carefully sun-dried on raised canopies for 20 days, a method that ensures slow and even drying to lock in the coffee’s vibrant flavor profile. Once the drying process is complete, the coffee undergoes stabilization in GrainPro bags for 30 days. This crucial step allows the flavors to mature and balance, resulting in a harmonious and well-rounded cup.
The final flavor profile of Gesha Oasis offers an exquisite combination of floral notes, blueberry, citric acid, grape, tangerine, orange, mango, and honey, reflecting the unique characteristics of the Gesha variety and its meticulous washed process.

Typica Vergel is a standout lot from El Vergel Estate in Fresno, Tolima, Colombia—crafted with precision to showcase the elegance of the Typica variety through an innovative honey process.
After being handpicked at optimal ripeness, the coffee cherries undergo a 16-hour aerobic pre-fermentation, allowing initial flavor development to begin. Next, the cherries are partially depulped and sealed in hermetic plastic tanks for a 72-hour anaerobic fermentation, where temperature and oxygen levels are closely monitored to enhance the coffee’s sweetness and complexity.
Following fermentation, the coffee is dried in a mechanical silo for 3 days, a method that ensures consistent drying and precise moisture control. The beans are then stabilized for 30 days in GrainPro bags until they reach 12% moisture content—an essential step that allows the flavors to fully settle and intensify.
The result is a refined cup that highlights the floral and citrus characteristics of Typica, layered with delicate sweetness and a clean finish. Ideal for roasters seeking traceable, small-batch coffees with high sensory clarity and varietal expression.

ntroducing the new "mosto processed coffee", a delightful fusion of innovation and flavor. The coffee undergoes an extensive 72-hour anaerobic fermentation in plastic tanks with lixiviates (from a Java fermented coffee), imparting an extra flavor kick. Our two-step drying process involves mechanical drying in a silo for 2 to 4 days at controlled temperatures to prevent over-fermentation, followed by 18 days of sun exposure. The beans then undergo a 30-day stabilization in GrainPro bags before the final milling.
What are lixiviates or mosto?
Lixiviates, or mosto, are by-products generated during the coffee fermentation process. These liquids contain microbial populations, including bacteria and yeasts. Utilizing lixiviates in the fermentation process helps reduce time and enhances the coffee, contributing to greater complexity and highlighting its flavors.
How do we get lixiviates?
Lixiviates are produced during the fermentation of coffee cherries, where the coffee undergoes dehydration, resulting in the generation of a liquid by-product. This by-product contains a higher concentration of microorganisms that develop flavors during fermentation.
How do we use lixiviates?
The liquid is collected at the end of the fermentation process and stored in a refrigerator at 3°C for up to 24 hours. To use it in other fermentation processes, we add water and sugar, allowing the mosto (lixiviates) to continue growing.
