Comprising three farms, the land was first allocated as pasture for beef cattle, but the Peterson family later transitioned it to pasture for dairy cattle and eventually, coffee. The year 2004 marked a pivotal turning point for the Peterson family in particular and the Panamanian coffee industry as a whole, when the first Gesha seeds were planted on Finca Jaramillo, one of Esmeralda’s three farms. In their own words, the Petersons acknowledge they are grateful and proud to call Hacienda La Esmeralda the “true origin of the wonders of Panama Gesha.” \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt seems fitting, then, that we feature one of their storied microlots as our own expression of love for this special variety which is so near and dear to our hearts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKnown for elevating variety over processing impact, the folks at Hacienda La Esmeralda kept things simple with this lot, carefully monitoring things like fermentation temperature and drying time to ensure this coffee remains a clean and restrained example of a naturally processed Panamanian Gesha.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhen \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehot, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ethis coffee showcases Gesha variety characteristics. It's intensely floral and citric, like bergamot. The stone fruit here is delicate, like white peaches.
