This Panama Geisha comes from the Janson Coffee Farm which is located in the Talamanca Mountain Range near the Tisingal and Baru volcanoes in Volcan, Panama. It is a family owned Hacienda that was established in 1941 by Carl Axel Janson. The farm’s main focus is quality production. No pesticides, no herbicides! The balance of nutrients in the soil comes from using enzyme micro organisms. This farm is committed to improve and protect the environment by using solar panels to produce the energy for the farm, reusing all excess matter from processing for fuel and fertilizer, and seeds from the forests are planted in the nursery for reforestation and protection of water resources. Natural spring water is used for their Washed processing.

The Janson’s processing plant was built in 1993. It was designed specifically for specialty coffee. They do Natural and Washed processing with updated technology added to artisanal methods to achieve the quality you will experience in this delicious bean!

Cupping notes: Balanced, juicy, crisp, mild, and smooth with flavor notes of milk chocolate, caramel, orange blossom, lemon, black cherry
