100% Geisha (Panama)
100% Geisha (Panama)
Arguably the most sought-after coffee in the world. Geisha coffee originates from Africa, but its full potential was realized in the volcanic soils of the Panamanian Highlands.
Our Geisha is grown within the coffee farms’ best, high elevation soil. These small, isolated growing areas are watched carefully throughout the beans lifecycle before finally being harvested and sorted by hand. Each and every bean must be gone through by hand to ensure consistency.
Expect notes of black cherry, caramel, milk chocolate and passion fruit. This coffee is best enjoyed black. We recommend preparing with a pour over or French press, giving particular attention to water temps (~195-200f). The ratio of coffee to water is dependent on personal preference, but we recommend a 1/15 (grams) ratio.
Coffee of this caliber is rare and meant for the most discerning coffee enthusiast. Each bag of Geisha ships in a custom wood box that has been distressed by hand and branded with the Juniper Mountain Coffee maker’s mark.
The 125 acres plantation produces several high-altitude specialty coffee varieties, including Geisha, Pacamara, and Caturra. In addition, the coffee plants are surrounded by natural tropical forest, Persian Lemons and other citrus fruits. For its exceptional flavor and quality of beans, Kalithea is one of the leading and most promising coffee plantations in Panama.
