This Lot N27 Geisha exhibits delicate layers of flavor:

Strawberry・Grapefruit・Floral・Honey

Panama's Volcán Barú region is a top-tier producing area in the global specialty coffee industry. Its unique microclimate and volcanic soil cultivate many astonishing coffee flavors. Coffee beans carefully tended by local "smallholders" often display an exceptionally high degree of artisanal refinement and unique handcrafted flavors.

1. Unique Terroir

Volcán Barú is the highest peak in Panama (approximately 3,474 meters above sea level), with coffee primarily grown on mountain slopes at altitudes ranging from 1,400 to 2,200 meters.

 Volcanic Ash Soil: Fertile volcanic soil, rich in minerals and with excellent drainage, provides ample nutrients for coffee trees.

 Microclimate and "Bajareque": Air currents from the Pacific and Atlantic oceans converge here, creating a unique microclimate. A common local drizzle known as Bajareque (often accompanied by rainbows), combined with significant day-night temperature differences, allows coffee cherries to ripen slowly, accumulating more dense and complex sugars and acidity.

🌟 Why is it worth trying?

1. The Essence of Volcanic Strata

Volcán Barú is not only Panama's highest peak, but its volcanic ash and mineral-rich soil, formed after eruptions, provide ideal trace elements for coffee beans. Geisha coffee grown here not only has a more distinctive flavor but is also rare and precious due to its limited yield.  

2. The Classic Dialogue of Geisha and Natural Process

The Geisha variety is renowned for its elegant jasmine aroma and tea-like qualities. Lot N27 undergoes traditional natural processing, allowing the coffee cherries to fully absorb sugars from the mucilage during drying. This adds a layer of rich sweetness and silky texture, reminiscent of tropical dried fruit, to the inherently pure floral base, creating incredibly rich layers of flavor.  

3. Selected Smallholder Series

This lot comes from a smallholder cooperative in the Volcán Barú region, emphasizing respect for the land and meticulous manual harvesting. Every ripe, red cherry is strictly selected, ensuring that every cup of coffee you taste is the culmination of this land and artisanal skill.
