Located on the outskirts of Amaybamba—a small village deep within the Incahuasi Valley—is Lucio Luque’s young coffee parcel, Nuevo Progresso. This portion of his farm is unique in that it was planted with a single variety, which although was initially thought to be SL-09 was later discovered to be Gesha. His excitement and intentional planting of this variety piqued our attention, and we worked with the cooperative and our supply chain partners to isolate Lucio’s coffee from the larger blend it would have otherwise been destined for. The resulting coffee is delicately floral and reminiscent of bubble gum and grapefruit.

We're excited to offer a limited amount of this coffee in special 4oz packaging that includes a Jenna Gotthelf trading card, while supplies last. Jenna, our Wholesale Education Manager, used Lucio Luque's Gesha coffee in her run for the US Barista Championship.
