Why some details are blank

price usdThe original SEY USD retail price was not recovered; Sigma's exact £25 retailer offer is stored separately in local currency.
roast levelSEY does not publish a conventional category; Kofio's Light to Medium Light and Sigma's general light-roast language are retailer classifications.
roast dateSigma displays May 25th but does not state a year, so no structured bag-specific date was entered.
gradeNo exact source publishes a formal green-coffee grade.
profile researchFull production details are corroborated by exact-release retailer pages because the current primary page omits them.
public sentimentKofio's one-review 5/5 result is seller-hosted; no qualifying independent exact-release tasting review was found.

From the producer

Luis Salas produces Gesha at El Paraíso in Peru; SEY identifies his coffee’s florality as the reason it first explored the Santa Teresa region in greater depth.

From the roaster

Sey Coffee is a Brooklyn-based micro-roastery dedicated to sourcing and roasting dynamic, complex coffees through transparent, long-term relationships with producers.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

The second consecutive SEY release from Luis Salas connects a clearly identified producer and farm to the roaster’s deeper sourcing work in Santa Teresa, while leaving undisclosed lot details explicitly unknown.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

Exact-release verification

Matched the record to SEY’s 2026 Luis Salas El Paraíso page and its unique tasting-note set.

Production-detail corroboration

Used Kofio and Sigma Coffee UK exact-release listings that independently agree on farm location, altitude, November 2025 harvest, fermentation and drying.

Retail recovery

Recorded Sigma Coffee UK's exact £25 / 250 g sold-out offer while leaving SEY's original USD retail price blank.

Sentiment correction

Removed the Kofio 5/5 seller-hosted one-review result from public sentiment because the source is a retailer rather than an independent review platform.

What was added?

Exact third-party retail price, refreshed sold-out status, reconciled provenance and corrected sentiment treatment.

What wasn't added?

No original SEY retail price, conventional roast level, formal grade, bag-specific roast date, owner tasting score, review or approval.

Why it matters

Separates corroborated production and retail facts from seller-hosted ratings and original owner review work.

What you might taste

Yellow tropical fruit, white peach, and jasmine, as listed by SEY.

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 2026-10-28) 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

Kofio's exact 5.0/5 result comes from one verified-customer review hosted by the retailer that sold the coffee, so it is disclosed but excluded under the independent-source rule. Sigma and The Press are exact-product retailers, not independent tasting sources. No public sentiment score was assigned.

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.
