[ 3 ] Story
Maragesha
It is not an ordinary Gesha, it's Maragesha.
This variety is natural cross between the Gesha and Maragogype varieties that discovered at Luis Anibal’s farm, Finca Villa Betulia.
In 2017, he noticed a few trees producing were producing different cherries to any other coffee trees in his farm. So he separated all the cherries and started cultivating this unknown variety.
Today, Luis Anibal managed to expand his production of Maragesha to 900 trees in just 4 years, by planting all the cherries produced by the first 3 trees that mutated.
This is the very first crop of Maragesha produced by Lunis Anibal that is available in the market.
BRUT Coffee is honoured to showcase his first ever Maragesha to you.
