Piedras Amarillas 2025 COE #2 Natural Geisha
Josh’s Notes:
Amazing coffee. There’s a subtle richness to the aroma on wet, like like a dark cacao petrichor. Jasmine and lemon notes arise as the coffee continues to soak, really intensely actually! Get your nose in the cup, and you’ll smell Fruity Pebbles or Fruit Loops; that lemon-y sugary cereal vibe, backed by a lovely orange acidity. Really vibrant and beautiful cup, extremely memorable traditionally processed geisha with notable pedigree.
Glitch’s Notes:
“From the deep forests of the Santa Bárbara Mountains in Honduras, a remarkable Geisha Natural, winner of 2nd place in the 2025 Cup of Excellence, has arrived from Piedras Amarillas.
Producer Mario Moreno learned coffee cultivation at an early age under his father, Daniel, who has been growing coffee for over 50 years. Despite facing economic hardship and the challenges of the pandemic, Mario and his wife gradually expanded their land and, in 2017, established Piedras Amarillas — meaning “yellow stones.”
The Santa Bárbara region is blessed with a cool climate and fertile volcanic soil. Moist, cold winds blowing from Lake Yojoa create significant day–night temperature variations, allowing coffee cherries to mature slowly, developing a condensed sweetness and a bright, transparent acidity.
The Moreno family built shared wet mills and drying facilities and has been producing specialty coffee since 2010. Mario’s lots consistently maintain exceptional quality, earning him five Cup of Excellence awards to date.
This Geisha was refined using the traditional natural process, highlighting not only the floral aroma characteristic of the variety, but also rich, fruity notes reminiscent of orange and fig. The result is an elegant expression of the terroir — a cup full of vibrant sweetness and refined fruit character.
A truly rare and exquisite coffee — a treasure to hold in your hands.”
Roasted light and spectacularly by our friends at Glitch Coffee and Roasters in Tokyo, Japan, rested for 7 days, then vacuum packed and frozen. I recommend enjoying this coffee right away.
