Janson Coffee Farm is perched on the western slopes of Volcán Barú in Chiriquí, Panama, an area famed for producing some of the world’s most revered Geisha coffees. Managed by the Janson Family for multiple generations, the farm practices sustainable cultivation techniques that honor the biodiversity and volcanic soil of this unique ecosystem. Elevations of 1,600–1,800 meters ensure the perfect balance of cool nights and sunny days, allowing the Geisha variety to develop a bright, fruit-forward complexity.

Lot 542 represents a carefully selected subset of cherries chosen for their exceptional quality. The Janson team meticulously oversees each step—from picking only the ripest cherries to employing innovative drying methods—in order to capture every nuance of the Geisha’s exquisite flavour profile.

Janson Natural Geisha Lot 542 greets you with vibrant strawberry aromas, underscored by the delicate allure of tropical florals. As the cup opens, the sweetness of peach takes center stage before giving way to a gentle cacao nib finish. Expect a lively acidity and a light-to-medium body—hallmarks of a skillfully processed natural Geisha from Panama’s high-altitude terroir.

Using the natural process, whole cherries are carefully dried on raised beds under controlled conditions. This method allows the fruit’s natural sugars to infuse each bean, amplifying their fruity fragrance and depth of flavour. Frequent turning and careful monitoring ensure a clean, sparkling cup without overpowering fermentation notes.
