Wilder Lasso - Colombia Geisha

In the cup we get a very juicy profile of raspberry and green grapes, intense florals that remind us of jasmine, a tropical sweetness like passionfruit and a juicy malic acidity. This coffee has a long finish and a silky body. This is one of the nicest geishas we've had in a while, and likely one of the most expressive we've shared in 2024.

Wilder Lasso (or Lazo) is actually a veterinarian specialized in livestock farming. As the coffee price continued to decline in 2016 and his father fell seriously ill, he decided to bring the family farm up to speed together with his brother. Initially, their coffees scored between 80-83 points on the cupping scale, despite elaborate processes and preparations. Wilder started examining soil samples and using targeted nutrients and fertilizers to neutralize the pH value, thereby increasing the availability of nutrients for the coffee trees. He refers to this as precision agriculture.
