Blind Assessment
Grandly and exhilaratingly complex. A bouquet of floral notes both meadowy and deep; grape and ripe mango-like fruit; crisp roasted cocoa nib in aroma and cup. Sweetly bright, balanced acidity; lightly syrupy and buoyantly lively mouthfeel. Long, super-flavor-saturated finish.
Notes
Produced from trees of the rare Ethiopia-derived botanical variety Gesha (also spelled Geisha). Gesha was planted on the Granja La Esperanza farm as part of a ten-year project to improve coffee quality and to introduce new botanical varietals to Colombia. With its generally elongated beans and distinctive floral and chocolate cup, the Geisha variety continues to distinguish itself as one of the world's most unique coffees. Roasted at PT’s Coffee, where the motto is “without the love, it’s just coffee.” Visit
Who Should Drink It
I can’t call a coffee this expensive a bargain, but it is less expensive than the more celebrated Panama Geshas, and given its extraordinary complexity and character, an excellent value for those who appreciate and can afford the genuinely exceptional.
