Hacienda La Esmeralda from Panama, the first time in a Natural process since 2022. This so-called second coffee from the world famous producer allows you to experience their Geisha coffee at a price, while still expensive, is not in the stratosphere. This fruity and floral Natural Geisha is from their highly regarded Jaramillo property. We were able to choose our pick of lots from several properties where the Petersons grow Geisha and this one was it for us this year.
We must reserve coffee in advance of the harvest in order to secure it. Layered flavors of jasmine and hibiscus. Flavors of orange, cherry, dried figs, prune. Natural processing was carefully done, making for mild fruit penetration. The result is a very sweet, balanced, elegant coffee that is both powerful and delicate all at once. A top coffee at a fair price.
Some Serious Select coffees derive from international coffee competitions which seek to rank the best coffee in a particular country in a given year, some are from private auctions - like the world renowned Hacienda Esmeralda from Panama - and still others are the product of experimentation by growers pushing the quality envelope.
