Colloquially known as “Inca Gesha” in Peru, SL9’s origins are still a mystery. Originally, Inca Gesha was thought to be its own distinct varietal hailing from Ethiopian Gesha genetics. However, genetic testing pioneered by Lance Schnorenberg of SEY Coffee and Christophe Montagnon of RD2 Vision found that Inca Gesha was a surprisingly close match to SL-09 from Kenya. As a result, Inca Gesha was almost universally renamed “SL-9”. There is still debate about whether SL9 should still be referred to as Inca Gesha, as this was and still is the term Peruvian farmers use to refer to their crop, and while it is a very close match to SL-09, it is not exact. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis natural SL9 lot is from Chavez Estate. It is the same plot and similar process that helped the Chavez family place fourth in the 2025 Peru Cup of Excellence. The cherries are first cleaned to wash away surface bacteria, then they are fermented inside grainpro bags for 7 days.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWHY WE SELECTED THIS COFFEE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe’re excited to share the second release in our duo of SL9 launches—and this one is even rarer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNatural processed SL9s from Peru are very uncommon, making this an especially unique expression of both the varietal and region.
