    This coffee is incredibly sweet with a crisp, citrus acidity, silky body and fragrant tropical notes of melon and kiwi. The aftertaste is like fresh lemonade. A unique cup that's sure to spark inspiration at first sip. Enjoy its vibrant, delightful flavors that linger long after you enjoy it.

    This remarkable Geisha is the first harvest from Hacienda La Papaya, planted in 2018 with seeds sourced from Boquete, Panama. It dazzles the senses with a cup full of complex florals and a honey-like sweetness that lingers in the mouth. A delightful fruit-driven acidity and an incredibly syrupy mouthfeel make this coffee truly unforgettable. The 25-day processing sees the cherries rotated regularly on elevated beds.
