The world's top coffee beans must belong to cat shit, blue mountain? How expensive can it be? Let's keep it interesting.

At the recent Best of Panama Coffee auction, the coffee bean, known as Panama Geisha, sold for a record-breaking price, making it the most valuable coffee bean ever sold. But like wine, Geisha is just a variety, and its valuable secret lies in Hacienda La Esmeralda, Panama.

Coffee fans believe they have heard that since 2004, Emerald Manor has swept several international coffee competitions with their Geisha, and just won the first place in the 2017 "Best of Panama (BOP)" Geisha Natural project with a near-perfect 94.1 points. In addition to BOP, it has also won the championship of SCAA Cupping and Rainforest Alliance Cupping for many times. No wonder the auction price has reached a record high every year. More accurately, money might not be able to buy it!

God in a Cup

But originally, Emerald Manor was a coffee estate that had been in business for 40 years but had no name. Until one day, the owner Price Petersons bought a piece of farmland in the highlands. If so, Geisha was planted at an altitude of 1,650 meters. When it was harvested, it was amazing! However, at that time, Geisha had been neglected in Panama and was planted as a windbreak. Only he believed that Geisha would participate in the BOP competition in 2004... Unexpectedly, the coffee world changed from then on.

"God in a Cup," wrote one judge, was Petersons 'small discovery that led to world-shaking discoveries.

Fragrance like fireworks

According to Geisha fans who have had the pleasure of drinking it,"its aroma is like fireworks, constantly blooming in the mouth during the tasting process, with lemon, citrus, strawberry-like juice, like juice rather than coffee." In short, drink is not easy to forget.

As for the secret of Emerald Manor's success, except for the unique natural environment in the Boquet area and the meticulous seed classification method, the rest are all mysteries, and due to the high quality and low quantity, they have to be auctioned every year... Speaking of which, it is time to start the auction price of this legendary coffee bean: $601 per pound, equivalent to approximately $4,766 Hong Kong dollars.

Is it worth it? Front Street Cafe was lucky enough to get a few kilograms of sun-dried red label rose summer and fermented red label rose summer, a cup for only 75 yuan!
