Hacienda La Esmeralda is arguably the originating force for geisha rise to prominence in the 2000’s. During the 2004 Best of Panama competition, the Peterson family had done something different and submitted lots based on separate areas of their farm. One particular lot was 100% geisha where it amazed everyone with its incredible intense fruit-forward and floral qualities. It went on to win the 2004 Best of Panama competition and set the world record price at the time for a coffee at an auction. Today they continue to produce incredible coffee and we are excited to sharing them with you.
