This natural Gesha is very rich in flavor. While many Peruvian microlots invoke a light, tropical experience, Homer's coffee walks a bolder path.
Notes of blueberry cobbler, brown butter, and red wine are all fighting for attention in this roast, yet you'll agree the final product proves they don't detract from one another. Even its body is bold, making this a true statement coffee.
Funky fermentation techniques are very in right now. These novel processes of drying, de-pulping, and experimenting tend to produce flavor profiles that even connoisseurs are wowed by. Homer's coffee is a naturally processed Gesha--no especially crazy shenanigans here--and yet it hits many of the same marks we've seen highlighted repeatedly by those trendy coffees, like characteristics of wine and prevalent fruit notes. It's a product that's in tune with the times, so we highly recommend you take note.
Coop Coffees began buying coffee from him in 2020, but Homer has been farming coffee since he was 18 years old. He's a second generation farmer as well. His wealth of experience shines in the microlots he's provided Higher Grounds with in the last few years.
Higher Grounds Coffee believes that high-quality coffee is sustainable only through a human-centric approach. They source 100% organic coffee directly through ownership of their importing co-op Cooperative Coffees, always paying well over market and fair trade minimum prices. Their coffee is meticulously cupped, profiled, and roasted with precision to bring out the best of every bean. They offer unique and tasty single-origins as well as delicious and crowd-pleasing blends.
Their dedication does not stop when the coffee hits the cup. They circle back to invest in farming communities via their nonprofit partners and through direct support of community development programs and sustainability initiatives. Whether it is school construction in Ethiopia, water projects in Chiapas, Mexico, or women's empowerment in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Higher Grounds has engaged in and supported farmer initiatives all over the world.
There are many coffee roasters to choose from, but no one does it like Higher Grounds. Their award-winning approach to sourcing and quality have earned them recognition from coast to coast.
