This kind of coffee bean was first found in a small village in Yigishan, Ethiopia in 1930, so it was renamed as geisha coffee bean. Introduced to Panama in the 1960s and found in the Panamanian Emerald Manor owned by California banker Rudolph A. Peterson in the 1990s, the geisha coffee tree was found in the Panamanian coffee bean cup test competition in 2004, and won the first prize in boutique coffee beans for many years in a row.

The production is low, and the auction price is reaching a record high year after year, such as the auction of "the Best Panamanian Coffee" held by the Panamanian Fine Coffee Association last month, which broke the record. The auction price was US$601 per pound, and Hacienda La Esmeralda sold nearly 100 pounds of coffee beans. Every year, only 45.5kg retails the coffee beans all over the world. 7kg has just been bought at The Coffee Academ ï cs, which has just opened a branch, so it has opened a 601 experience room in the branch so that Hong Kong coffee fans can try this luxury product.
