About the Farm & Producer

Hacienda La Esmeralda, managed by the Peterson family, is the farm that put Panama Geisha on the world map—starting with its 2004 Best of Panama win. Located on the El Velo and Jaramillo lots in Boquete, Panama, and situated at ~1,650–1,900 m elevation, the estate benefits from cool, misty conditions and volcanic soils that allow the Geisha cultivar’s delicate aromatics to fully express.

This washed Geisha from Hacienda La Esmeralda represents one of the most sought-after microlots in specialty coffee. Sourced from Boquete, Panama's renowned coffee region, and grown at 1650–1900 meters, this varietal is prized for its distinctive floral and tea-like character. The washed processing method emphasizes clarity and brightness, allowing the coffee's delicate aromatics to shine through. Rosso Coffee Roasters captures the cup's violet, orange blossom, and jasmine notes alongside bright red apple—a profile that exemplifies what makes Geisha coffees compelling to enthusiasts. The 4FB grade and 100g format offer an opportunity to experience this exceptional lot in a thoughtfully sized offering.
