Each of these presentations are and outstanding combination of high altitude Geisha microlots from their respective farms. This collection showcases each farm’s unique story, shaped by the interaction of the elements in them, but are all unmistakably Esmeralda Geishas for their brightness, sweetness and loral attributes.

Since 2004, Hacienda La Esmeralda Panama has gone on to win a great number of major coffee industry awards and to set several online coffee auction price records. This makes it the hardest coffee to find. No one will have it no matter the price. Fortunatly we have a friend  in Panama that could source it for us. It took 6 years to get one sack.

Panama is a rising star in the specialty coffee world. In the Boquete in particular, farmers are taking Arabica coffee cultivation to new levels and recent auctions of small, specialty lots have garnered record, if not silly, prices. Nonetheless, some of the coffee is excellent. Gesha, a varietal that stems from Ethiopia, has been grown here with good success, yet other cultivars noted above, can produce superb results.
