WILDER LAZO | COLOMBIA SEMI WASHED ANAEROBIC GESHA

Origin: San Adolfo, Colombia
Producer: Wilder Lazo
Varietal: Gesha
Process: Double Fermentation with Citrus Infusion

In 2017, Wilder Lazo dove into coffee farming, inspired by his family’s legacy in the San Adolfo mountains. Combining his genetic expertise with an adventurous spirit, he launched a varietal program featuring over a dozen unique coffee varieties. His Gesha showcases the pinnacle of his passion and innovation.

This coffee undergoes a meticulous double fermentation. After hand-sorting, floating, and depulping, the cherries ferment for 140 hours in GrainPro bags with their mucilage, enhancing floral and citric notes. A second 48-hour fermentation in plastic tanks deepens complexity. During 18 days of sun-drying, Wilder adds tangerine peel to the wet parchment, infusing the coffee with vibrant zest. A 25-day stabilization period harmonizes the flavors.

The result is a dynamic cup with sweet aromatics, bright floral and citric acidity, and notes of green tea, lemongrass, and orange—a true expression of Wilder’s bold approach to coffee.
