Why some details are blank
  • individual producer namesOnyx identifies six San Vicente Yogondoy farmers collectively but does not name them on the exact release page.
  • crop yearOnyx lists February as the harvest season but does not publish the year.
  • fermentation protocolWashed processing is documented without a release-specific duration, vessel, or water protocol.
  • drying durationRaised-bed drying is documented without a lot-specific time range or endpoint.
  • green-cost payment stageThe exact page reports $9.50 green cost and a B payment grade but does not separately publish the farm-gate amount.
  • roast dateThe retailer’s August 26 date is bag-specific, and Onyx’s changing latest-batch module is not a stable release-wide roast date.
  • public sentiment ratingThe exact retailer reports zero reviews and no qualifying independent exact-release tasting score was found.

From the producer

Six farmers in San Vicente Yogondoy cultivate this Gesha under native shade and maintain farm health through the Zapotec communal practice of Tequio.

From the roaster

Onyx archives this as a Light, washed Gesha from six San Vicente Yogondoy farmers, with raised-bed drying, Agtron 130, filter and espresso recipes, and an archived $38/10 oz offer.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This is a community-scale Gesha from six farmers in a remote Zapotec village, linking native-shade cultivation and Tequio communal work with a documented washed, raised-bed-dried preparation.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Verified the community lot

Matched San Vicente Yogondoy, the six-farmer collective, Sierra Sur, Gesha, 1,600 m, February harvest season, washed process, raised-bed drying, Light roast, Agtron 130, and tasting notes to Onyx’s exact archive.

02
Completed the archived offer

Added Onyx’s $38 standard 10 oz offer; the exact retailer identifies 10 oz as 283 g. Onyx marks the product archived, so availability remains sold out.

03
Preserved practical recipes

Retained Onyx’s exact filter and espresso starting points without turning them into owner tasting results.

04
Added sourcing transparency

Documented Onyx’s $9.50 green cost, $0.09 import cost, B payment-traceability grade, $2.83 market reference, 86.5 green assessment, and 860-pound lot separately from review scores.

05
Audited outside coverage

The exact retailer has zero reviews. Cherrybook’s sparse evidence index and modeled pricing were excluded from public tasting sentiment.

What was added?

Verified $38/10 oz/283 g archived offer, current sold-out verification, sourcing transparency, and a refreshed exact-release sentiment audit.

What wasn't added?

No individual farmer names, crop year, fermentation duration or vessel, drying duration, farm-gate price, roast date, owner score, or numerical public sentiment rating was invented.

Why it matters

The profile now has a complete exact-release offer and makes Onyx’s trade figures useful without confusing its 86.5 green assessment with an owner or public review score.

What you might taste

Almond, matcha, jasmine, and allspice, according to Onyx; these are roaster descriptors, not an owner tasting result.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

Research complete — no qualifying reviews yet

Our research pipeline scanned public reviews, videos, forums and discussions for this coffee (last pass 2026-11-07) and found no independent review of this exact release that meets our verification standards. When qualifying sources appear, they'll be published here.

What we found

The exact retailer reports no reviews. Cherrybook’s sparse evidence index uses catalog and roaster-level signals and is not an exact-release cup score; its modeled price and inconsistent 312 g estimate were excluded. No qualifying independent tasting review remains.
