The species of Geisha was discovered in the rose forest of Ethiopia in 1931 and sent to the Coffee Institute in Kenya. Introduced to Uganda and Tanzania in 1936 and Costa Rica in 1953, little attention was paid to Rose Summer until one day, Don Pachi was originally brought to Costa Rica from the town of GESHA in southwestern Ethiopia, and then Rosa entered Panama along the southern route, where Esmerada Manor in Panama separated it from other varieties and won the National Coffee Competition.

Rose is full of sweetness and cleanliness on the palate, with rich aromas ranging from berry and citrus to mango, papaya and peach. A very obvious lemon (bergamot) general aftertaste is also a typical cup test attribute. So far, Rose Summer has been the champion of coffee varieties.

In 1996, during the lowest period of international coffee prices, seven coffee farms located in Boquete and Volcan saw the dawn of the specialty coffee era. Organized and established the famous Panamanian Association of Special Coffees of Panama (SCAP) Panamanian boutique coffee association.

Since 2004, SCAP has organized the first Best of Panama (BOP) Best Panama auction, with only 11 grades of beans, with an average transaction price of US $2.89 per pound. By 2012, this figure has reached US $24.83, which has greatly encouraged and promoted the development of boutique coffee. The famous Hacienda La Esmeralda, Don Pachi Estate, Carmen Estate and Elida Estate are all founding manors.

Panamanian Emerald Manor-the rose summer of Panama Geisha Hacienda La Esmeralda is the new king of boutique coffee, commonly known as "Red Standard Rose Summer".

Red bid Rose Xia participates in the global bidding auction in May every year. Green bid does not participate in the auction, but it is also of high quality and the price is slightly cheaper. Buyers who buy red bid can give priority to buying green bid.

The pronunciation of Geisha is the same as Japanese geisha, so it is also called geisha coffee. Because the tree species are taller than ordinary coffee trees, they are originally planted in a small area of the manor and are used as windbreaks. In order to take part in the annual competition for the best coffee in Panama, the son of the manor owner searched all the coffee trees in the manor for testing, so that Geisha had a chance to appear on the stage. Since then, he has also participated in various world coffee competitions, winning a total of 11 championships.
