From the producer

Genezard Perez manages a beautiful farm in the San Fernando Valley, where the proximity to a nature reserve helps maintain a cool, stable climate ideal for producing expressive, high-quality coffee.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based roastery known for its light-roast, fruit-forward style and commitment to transparent, relationship-based sourcing of dynamic and complex micro-lots.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

A high-elevation SL9 separation from Vista Alegre whose provisional cultivar identity, exact harvest, processing sequence, and green-coffee pricing are unusually well documented.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
CONNECTED SL9

Linked the existing SL9 record while retaining SEY’s provisional-name caveat.

02
CONNECTED CUSCO

Linked the existing Cusco region through the verified Amaybamba location.

03
DOCUMENTED PROCESS

Added harvest, altitude, in-cherry hold, fermentation, drying, and final moisture.

04
ADDED ONE-SOURCE SENTIMENT

Recorded one independent exact-release 89/100 cupping score as public sentiment, separate from our own unscored profile.

What was added?

Cusco and SL9 relationships, November 2025 harvest, 2,200-meter elevation, full washed-process sequence, archived retail price, and one-source public sentiment.

What wasn't added?

No roast level, roast date, broader consensus, or settled genetic identity was inferred.

Why it matters

The page distinguishes the documented SL9 working identity from Gesha and separates one public exact-release score from Who Makes the Best Coffee’s still-unscored editorial status.

What you might taste

SEY reports florals, prickly pear, and lychee; the independent cupping post emphasized floral character and cleanliness.
