Processing

Geisha Component:

Hand-picked cherries fermented with yeast, treated with hot water for thermal shock, dried on African beds, and dehumidified. A meticulous process developed by Sigilo and Sebastián Pinzón to enhance complexity while preserving the coffee’s natural character.

Instinct Component:

The magic of Instinct lies in its careful 48/48 process:

• 48 hours of fermentation in cherry
• Pulping
• An additional 48 hours in the mucilage, enriched by the natural leachates of the coffee and constant movement to fix the flavors

Each step pays tribute to the fertile, millennia-old land that nourishes the beans and celebrates the deep heritage of Colombian coffee culture.

Objective:

To enhance aromatic intensity and structure, delivering a refined and expressive cup with depth and balance.
