Panama, Natural Gesha
Panama, Natural Gesha
(Seasonal - Out of Stock) One of the most celebrated coffees in the world, the Panama Gesha (aka "Geisha") is an heirloom varietal like no other. Grown in the volcanic loam of the Boquete, Chiriquí region of Panama, the green coffee beans are processed "naturally", dried on raised beds with the sweet sugars from the cherry intact, imparting sweetness to the cup. Our carefully-tuned light roast brings out a sweet, vibrant complexity that is unique and satisfying.
Toleff Bache Mönniche came to Panama to participate in the design and construction of the Panama Canal at the beginning of the 20th century. While traveling through the highlands he arrived in a unique spot: Finca Lerida. Later he built a house and began growing coffee and began one of best quality exotic coffees of the trade.
