Varietal: 100% Authentic La Esmeralda Reserve Geisha Coffee, Panama. This coffee is available only in very limited quantities. Requests for bulk orders will be declined. Geisha coffee is the most unique, expensive, and sought after natural coffee in the world. It is on a completely different level than other coffees. People use words like "floral", "grapefruit" and "jasmine" when describing its flavors. In fact, Geisha is considered by many coffee professionals, connoisseurs and enthusiasts to be the most intense, complex, brilliant varietal ever discovered. Geisha gained its current acclaim from crops cultivated in Panama, although its roots can be traced back to the fertile slopes of Southwest Ethiopia. Geisha coffee plants are low yielding and only grow in certain areas of the world in tiny microclimates. The combination of low production and high demand due to its unique flavors have created this coffee to have true cult status.

Deep, long, resonantly flavor-saturated finish.Notes:Coffee from trees of the botanical variety Gesha (also Geisha) grown on Price Peterson’s Hacienda La Esmeralda in Panama first introduced this extraordinary variety of Arabica to the world. With its bold, boat-shaped beans and distinctive floral and crisply cacao-toned cup, the Gesha continues one of the world’s most unique coffees, and the Esmeralda versions remain among the most authentic. Big Shoulders Coffee is a Chicago artisan roaster that emphasizes its fresh-roasted, no-nonsense approach to fine coffee. Bag Size: 8 oz. Roast Info: Medium Roast: Highly recommended for Espresso. Can be used for traditional brewed coffee also, but flavors will be more mild than with the full city roast. Full City Roast: Highly recommended for traditional brewed coffee. Can be used for Espresso also, but flavors will be more bitter than with the medium roast.Geisha is a difficult bean to roast. The bean is oval and the seam of the bean is more open than other varietals, which allows more heat to enter the bean. However, the flavors of Geisha are delicate and roasting the beans for too long or getting them too hot will destroy the floral nature of the bean's flavor. There is a delicate balance between getting enough heat to bring out the bean's flavors and not burning it.To roast the bean perfectly, we use a variable temperature roasting process. We call this our IdealRoast Technology. This process is completely proprietary and has taken us over a year to develop. It takes much longer to roast the beans than traditional methods and we can only roast small batches at a time.All of our coffees are roasted at the time of purchase to guarantee maximum freshness and vibrance of flavor.When purchasing your beans you can choose Medium Roast or Full City Roast. In addition you can choose to have your beans whole or ground.______________________________________________________Geisha is NOT to be confused with Kopi Luwak coffee, which is comprised of coffee beans that are removed from the feces of the civet cat. Kopi Luwak coffee does NOT taste special and it contributes to terrible animal cruelty. Civets are locked in cages and force fed coffee beans in terrible conditions. FIGHT ANIMAL CRUELTY AND SPREAD THE WORD TO PLEASE NOT BUY KOPI LUWAK. Disclaimers and additional notes: Once you make your purchase, we will roast the coffee and ship it out within 24 hours.SHIPPING METHOD is at the discretion of the SELLER. Typically we use FedEx Express One-Rate. However if you are in Hawaii, Alaska or Puerto Rico, for instance, we may use Priority Mail 1-3 day shipping as this is half the price for us and arrives at the same time. Or if you are in Florida we may use FedEx Ground, as the delivery time is the same as Express and the cost is more affordable to us. If you request a certain shipping method we will do our best to accommodate you, but additional charges may apply if your preferred shipping method is in excess of other methods with similar arrival time.For best flavor, the coffee beans should rest 48 hours after the roast, so depending on where you live you may receive the coffee before this resting period is complete. We carefully weigh out 8.125 ounces of unroasted beans before we roast. The beans naturally lighten in weight during the roasting process. This is why we add an extra 1/8 of an ounce. We cannot guarantee the weight will be exactly a full 8 oz. after roasting.Coffee beans will release natural gasses for several days after roasting. This is a natural process and this is why there are one-way valves in the coffee bags we use. Should you receive the coffee and the bag has expanded from these gasses, please do not be alarmed. Just squeeze the bag and the gasses will escape from the valve.Our Geisha coffee is sold by weight, not volume. Each bag contains 8 oz. of coffee beans. Each batch is weighed carefully before roasting. The beans will settle and the bag will not be filled to the very top. While Geisha coffee is very unique in its flavors, taste is also very subjective and everyone's taste buds are unique. The flavor notes contained within this listing are not generated by us, and we cannot guarantee that you will taste all the exact same flavors that they mention.Should you choose to have us grind the beans for you, please understand that we will grind the beans to a medium sized grind using our own benchmarks. The coarseness of the grind can be a contention among customers. Some prefer a finer grind while others prefer coarse. If you are highly particular about the coarseness of the grind, please buy the beans whole and grind them yourself.Refunds are only given if the coffee bag is returned sealed and unopened.
