About
Very floral washed Geisha from the Trapiche plot of Hacienda La Esmeralda's Cañas Verdes farm, picked 23 December 2025. Cherries were washed, then fermented 96 hours in anaerobic stainless-steel tanks in a cold room and dried 10 days on African beds. Offered in two roasts: Omni-light (violet-toned sweetness, silky texture, buttery finish) and Ultra-light (creamier jasmine and citrus, lighter texture, evolving to bergamot).
