Rodrigo Oyuela is a Colombian coffee producer focused on cultivating high-quality, small-lot coffees with an emphasis on varietal expression. Working in southern Colombia, Rodrigo applies meticulous farm management and selective harvesting to bring out the clarity and elegance Geisha is known for. Attention to detail, from cherry selection through to processing, is central to his approach, allowing this delicate variety to fully express both origin and terroir.
This Geisha is grown at high altitude, where cooler temperatures slow cherry maturation and help develop complex aromatics. Cherries are selectively handpicked at peak ripeness before being carefully processed to preserve clarity and structure. The result is a refined, expressive cup, combining vibrant aromatics with a light, elegant body and a clean, lingering finish — a showcase of Geisha’s distinctive character when grown and processed with care.
