Mauricio Shattah

Mauricio Shattah operates in the Tolima department of Colombia, with coffee cultivation taking place at high elevations ranging from 1800 to 2350 meters above sea level. This mountainous terrain provides the cool temperatures and microclimates necessary for growing specialty coffee varieties.

The varietal portfolio centers on Geisha, alongside less common cultivars such as Maragogype, Mokka, Sidra, and SL28. This diverse selection allows for distinct flavor profiles across different harvests and lots.

Processing methods span both traditional and experimental techniques, including washed, natural, white honey, anaerobic washed, and anaerobic natural preparations. Anaerobic natural lots appear frequently within the catalog offerings.

A total of six specialty coffee roasters feature lots from this producer in the index, representing nine distinct coffees overall, with two currently in stock. Recent catalog entries feature single-variety offerings like the Colombia Sidra roasted by Assembly Coffee, alongside various preparations of Red Geisha, SL28, and Maragogype processed by roasters such as Phil and Sebastian Coffee Roasters and Hydrangea Coffee.

The work of Mauricio Shattah is characterized by a combination of high-altitude cultivation in Tolima, a wide range of rare varietals, and diverse post-harvest processing methods.
