Rigoberto Herrera

Rigoberto Herrera's Cerro Azul geisha from Café Granja la Esperanza is the coffee that shaped modern Colombian specialty coffee—it won competitions globally and inspired an entire nation to embrace exotic varieties. This naturally processed lot delivers the full expression of geisha's potential: big tropical fruits (pineapple, passion fruit, grape) layered with dark berry complexity and loads of natural sweetness. The cup is deeply complex and satisfying, showcasing why Rigo's work fundamentally changed how the world perceives Colombian coffee quality and innovation.
