INTRO
Finca Las Delicias sits in the hands of a dedicated family now in its third generation of coffee farming. Jesús Ángel López has worked the land for 14 years alongside his father, guided by a clear philosophy: only ripe cherries, only washed coffees, only the best. The result is a Gesha that expresses the variety's inherent clarity and elegance without distraction.
Prodigal sought out this lot specifically for the clean, precise character that defines the López approach — a family committed to quality at every stage, from selective picking to careful drying.
THE PRODUCER
Jesús Ángel López is a third-generation coffee producer in Nariño, Colombia, working Finca Las Delicias with his father. Over 14 years he has refined his approach to favour precision over intervention: exclusively washed processing, density sorting, and careful attention to post-harvest handling.
Nariño is one of Colombia's most celebrated coffee-growing departments, situated in the far south of the country near the Ecuadorian border. Its high altitude, volcanic soils, and proximity to the equator combine to produce an unusually long, slow growing season — ideal for the development of complex sugars and acidity in varietals like Gesha.
THE PROCESS
The Washed process at Finca Las Delicias involves:
- 🍒 Selective Harvest — Only ripe cherries picked by hand
- ✅ Density Sorting — Coffee sorted by density to remove defects and unripe fruit
- 🔧 Pulping — Fruit skin removed mechanically
- 📅 Tank Fermentation — Fermented in tanks for 24 hours
- 💧 Washing — Thoroughly washed to remove remaining mucilage
- ☀️ Drying — Dried over 15–20 days on raised beds
The shorter 24-hour fermentation and meticulous washing allow the Gesha variety to express its natural aromatic character with precision and clarity.
THE CUP
This is a Gesha of delicacy and precision — peach and berries provide ripe, sweet fruit weight whilst earl grey florals give the cup an aromatic lift that's classic of the variety at its finest. Clean, expressive, and beautifully structured.
