What Melba Coffee & Tea Co say
Melba Coffee: Gesha Marcela
A Masterclass in Complexity & Process
Experience the pinnacle of specialty coffee with the Gesha Marcela. This limited-release offering showcases the world-renowned Gesha varietal, elevated by a sophisticated dual-processing method to create a cup that is as vibrant as it is deep.
The Profile
- Process: Natural + Carbonic Maceration. By utilizing Carbonic Maceration (fermenting the cherries in a CO2-rich, anaerobic environment), the natural fruit sugars are intensified, resulting in a wine-like acidity and incredible clarity of flavor.
- Varietal: Gesha (Geisha).
- Roast Level: Optimized to preserve delicate floral and fruity aromatics.
This coffee offers a multidimensional sensory experience, evolving as the cup cools:
- Primary: Rich Dark Chocolate & Sweet Strawberry.
- Acidity: Bright, citrusy Tangerine.
- Finish: An elegant, floral Tea Rose aromatic that lingers on the palate.
Brewing Recommendation
To fully appreciate the nuanced layers of the Carbonic Maceration process, we recommend brewing this as a Filter/Pour-over (V60 or Chemex). This method allows the delicate floral notes and complex acidity to shine through without being overwhelmed.
