Why some details are blank
  • variety geneticsSL9 is a provisional working identity: it resembles SL09 and contains no Gesha, but the precise fingerprint is absent from the current reference database.
  • drying durationThe exact roaster page identifies raised-bed drying but does not state duration.
  • roast dateSpro provides a February 7, 2026 release date, not a bag-specific roast date.
  • formal gradeNo formal green-coffee grade is published for the exact release.
  • original tasting scoreThe owner has not supplied a tasting score or approval for this coffee.
  • public sentimentSpro has no reviews, Cherrybook's CBI is not a cup score, and no qualifying independent exact-release tasting review was found.

From the producer

Albino Ibias is the named producer at Tres Cedros in Inkawasi, Cusco. SEY describes this as its first year working with the Ibias family and highlights the farm’s high-elevation microclimate below Inkawasi’s tallest waterfall.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based micro-roastery focused on sourcing dynamic, complex coffees through transparent supply chain relationships. They prioritize precise roast development to highlight the inherent character of each origin.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

The lot features the rare working identity SL9: genetically tested material resembles SL09 and contains no Gesha, but the precise fingerprint is not yet represented in the global reference database.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Identity checked

Matched Albino Ibias, Tres Cedros, Inkawasi/Cusco and the exact first 2026-labeled release.

02
Relationships retained

Kept the existing Cusco, SL9, Tres Cedros and Albino Ibias relationships; no new related entity was created.

03
Process documented

Verified the December 2025 harvest, 2,260 m altitude, 32-hour dry fermentation and raised-bed drying.

04
Retail fields reconciled

Added the exact $32.50/250 g archived offer and standardized Spro's 3/5 roast scale to the site's Medium category.

What was added?

Structured $32.50 USD price, 250 g package, Medium roast mapping, refreshed sold-out verification and exact source trail.

What wasn't added?

No definitive genetic identity beyond provisional SL9, drying duration, public rating or original house score.

Why it matters

The profile now aligns its structured retail fields with the evidence already documented in its editorial narrative while keeping catalog indexes separate from evaluated cup quality.

What you might taste

Roaster-listed tropical melon, jasmine, honey and peach.

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 2026-11-04) 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

Spro's exact listing shows no reviews. Cherrybook's CBI is explicitly an evidence-of-quality index rather than a cup score, and BeanHoard is a catalog record. Seller, directory, different-release and non-exact sources were excluded.

Until then, meet the people behind it:

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.
