About this Product
Marisela is the top dog at the Sanchez family estate keeping her family's history and name prominent within the specialty coffee world.
The Sánchez family have a small “estate” in El Portal, Palestina. This land was granted to Marisela’s parents by the Colombian government in the 1950s, and they have been growing coffee in this area for the duration. Located in Huila, this region is world renowned for the excellent coffee that it produces.
With the passing of the land to the second generation - the family have split the estate into smaller plots, each owned and managed by Marisela’s siblings and wider family, with the main processing and drying station situated at Marisela’s house.
As Marisela is approaching retirement age she has focussed her efforts, instead deciding to focus on her work within her community and to start producing coffees of lower yield but of higher value and rarity. This geisha is testament to the care and attention to detail Marisela puts in to her work each and every day. This is what history and heritage tastes like.
