SYNOPSIS
The varietal geisha has won numerous coffee tasting awards in recent years and is creating a high demand for the coffee at auctions.
Geisha coffee plants have become known for their distinguished characteristics. The producer, Eugene with family, acquired two farms in the Boquete region of Panama which were completely abandoned and commenced his involvement with the Special Coffee Association of Panama (SCAP) by primarily focusing and devoting himself on quality and innovation.
The varietal geisha has won numerous coffee tasting awards in recent years and become infamous. It is constantly creating a high demand for the coffee at auctions.
Coffee producers of are constantly looking to improve the quality of coffee by including new techniques and experimental processes. This coffee follows an addition to the conventional natural drying process. Cherries are harvested at 24-26 Brix, sorted and packed in GrainPro bags to be placed in a refrigerator at 12C for 50 hours. Furthermore, cherries are removed from the refrigerator and left to rest for 10 hours and placed on raised beds for primary drying of 5 days. A prolonged drying on shaded raised beds is initiated for up to 30 days.
This lot is arranged by our friend Eugene P. Altieri with family.
