A beautifully floral Gesha, this semi-washed coffee will have a fair amount of funk that fades steadily as the coffee rests. You will get an intensely sweet and floral hibiscus and orange candy with your first sip, followed by a pleasant earl grey tea-like finish. 

Notes on the semi-washed process taken from Unblended: 

"This is a semi-washed coffee, meaning it is depulped without water and then fermented with water, allowing for the development of sweeter, fruitier notes while maintaining the balance and clarity of a washed coffee.

The cherries first undergo a 48-hour fermentation with beer yeast, enhancing oxidation and stabilizing the flavor. The process then continues in mucilage, with the pulp remaining attached for 24 hours, during which the beans are stirred every 3 to 4 hours to ensure even fermentation. Next, the beans enter a two-stage drying phase: the first seven days at a lower temperature, followed by an additional 2 to 3 weeks at a higher temperature until they reach 12% moisture."
