From the producer

José Elcías Martínez Guzmán produces coffee at Finca El Casino in Palestina, Huila. SEY documents a multi-year relationship and identifies this release as its first purchase of his Gesha variety.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based roastery focused on sourcing dynamic, complex coffees through transparent partnerships and precise roast profiles that highlight the natural character of the beans.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This February 2025 end-of-season lot is SEY’s first documented Gesha purchase from José Martínez and has a complete same-day depulping and 30-hour dry-fermentation record.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

Cherries were hand-picked at peak ripeness and floated to remove defects.

Same-day depulping

The selected cherries were depulped on the day of harvest.

Dry fermentation

The depulped coffee dry-fermented for 30 hours.

Raised-bed drying

The coffee was dried on raised beds.

What was added?

Nothing was disclosed as added.

What wasn't added?

No fruit, spices, flavorings, commercial cultures, or post-roast additives were disclosed.

Why it matters

This is a traditional washed Gesha with the harvest pass, depulping timing and fermentation duration disclosed.

What you might taste

SEY reports nectarine, white florals, and apricot.

Same coffee, different roaster?

Other roasters, same producer.

These coffees come from the same producer or farm, offered by other roasters. We never automatically declare two offerings the exact same coffee — a match requires lot, harvest and traceability details. Even a true same-lot pair can taste different: roast approach, freshness, rest and brewing all reshape the cup.
