Panama Esmeralda Geisha is my favourite coffee because it reflects my cooking philosophy in the cup. It is elegant, balanced and with a strong identify. I am surprised every time when I taste it and rediscover all its nuances, and I am amazed at its complexity.
Esmeralda Geisha Washed is a very special Arabica that is unlike any other. Only the ripest cherries are picked at the right time, meaning harvesting can last for a few months … but some things, like this, are definitely worth waiting for. When the beans are graded anything over 90 is sold or auctioned, but the very best lots are kept for the Best of Panama competition or for preferred buyers such as Difference Coffee. We have an established relationship with Esmeralda who now offer us the privilege of early access to their most distinctive micro-lots before they go to auction.
