If you are a coffee fan, you must be familiar with Geisha coffee. If you are new to the world of boutique coffee, you should learn about this legendary coffee variety.

What is Rosa Coffee?

Geisha was originally a wild coffee variety growing in southwestern Ethiopia, but at first the word Geisha did not refer specifically to the variety we now know, but a sample of mixed coffee collected by an Englishman in a field called geisha in southwestern Ethiopia, named after the region, was sent to a British plantation in Kenya in 1932 for research.

Then some of the samples were introduced to Tanzania and Uganda in 1937 for further research and cultivation. Then in 1953, some samples were introduced to Costa Rica for disease resistance research. Then in 1963, some of the samples were brought back to the country by the owner of the coffee farm in Panama and distributed to other coffee farms for variety research and breeding.

Later, after more than 30 years, in order to adapt to the local environment, the Rose summer varieties that came to Panama had their own unique genetic changes, and accidentally gave their coffee beans a charming fragrance like perfume and citrus acidity.

The characteristic of Rosa coffee was first discovered by Daniel, the current owner of the Panamanian jade estate, and after several years of observation, it was determined that the flavor of this variety was different from that of other coffee, and decided to send these beans to the competition. So in 2004, Daniel sent the perfume-like varieties to the competition.

In the competition, Rosa Coffee won the championship with a strong and complex flavor, which one of the judges described as God in a cup, and then won the championship for four consecutive years. In the auction house, Geisha also broke many high price records.

Compared with the typical Panamanian coffee flavor, Rosa's distinctive features are impressive, full of jasmine aromas, with acidity and sweetness of orange, lemon and honey, clean and soft on the palate. Slightly sour but not bitter, full of flower and fruit aroma, no wonder some people describe it as coffee that does not look like coffee.

After Rosa Coffee became famous, the varieties introduced in other areas were planted one after another. But only the rosy summer planted at high elevations in Panama will have rich and charming aromas of flowers and fruits.
