In the far reaches of southwest Colombia - at the intersect of the Ecuadorian border and the Pacific Ocean - lies the region of Nariño; incredibly unique in its topography and growing conditions, it produces coffees that stand distinguishably apart from other Colombian regions.

This my second time purchasing coffee from Frank, though I've been aware of his work for many years. He is a uniquely talented producer - gifted not only with the wherewithal of cultivation, but also a deep understanding of the chemistry of process and a Q-Grader's (which he is) command of quality control.

This coffee - washed Gesha - is for me the truest and most expressive reflection of his mastery.
