Directly smell coffee beans, there is a burst of fruit sugar aroma; brewed coffee, you will smell very fragrant jasmine; while hot, you can taste the sweet taste of lychee and peach.

The barista described it as "like perfume."

Esmeralda Geisha 601, the champion coffee of Best of Panama in 2017, broke the world record and became the most expensive coffee in history, while Qianjie is only a few kilograms and is very expensive.

King of boutique coffee

"in the middle of each year, Panamanian estates take the best coffee beans of the year to the competition, and after dozens of judges and more than a week of cup test judges, the champion coffee of the year is selected." And "601 Geisha Coffee" is exactly this year's champion coffee, "601 refers to the amount of online auction, and this year's auction price broke the world record, 601 US dollars per pound!"

It turns out that geisha coffee has always been known as the king of boutique coffee, because it is difficult to grow and the output is not much. "the soil for growing geisha coffee is demanding and needs to be planted at high elevations, and the trees of this coffee bean are particularly tall and difficult to harvest, so few people are willing to cut the seeds."

Coffee costs $601 a pound, nearly double the world record of $350 a pound four years ago. In addition to being precious because of its small quantity, its cup test score is also quite high. "in general, the cup score of boutique coffee is more than 80 points, while '601 Geisha Coffee' broke the world record and scored 94.11 points!"

The sun keeps the coffee sweet.

The treatment of raw coffee beans is divided into water washing, sun drying and honey treatment. the washed coffee is fermented through water to make the flavor of the coffee beans cleaner. "the manor uses a more difficult way to control the sun to deal with this batch of geisha coffee beans, hoping to retain the sweetness." Herman pointed out.

"A coffee bean has its own flesh, and there is sugar in the pulp. Because it is not soaked in water, the sugar in the flesh will penetrate into the coffee beans through the drying process, creating the sweetness of the coffee beans. Therefore, '601 Geisha Coffee' will have the flavor of litchi and peach, which is what makes sun-dried coffee special."

The editor believes that a cup of high-quality boutique coffee can actually let everyone taste the sweetness of nature. "like fruit tea and scented tea, good coffee should have the flavor of the producing area, not the taste of baking. Stir-fry coffee beans and drink them will make them bitter, while the taste of seeds should be the taste brought to you by nature."
