What is Geisha?

Geisha is a high-priced coffee, often reminiscent of Panamanian coffee. In fact, Geisha was discovered in the rose summer forests of Ethiopia in 1931 and has only been cultivated since the 1960s. The Geisha tree is taller, and its beautiful, slender leaves are easy to tell. The quality of Geisha growing at high altitude will be greatly improved.

Esmeralda Geisha has even sweetness, clear and pure flavor, with cherry, citrus, mango, papaya, peach, pineapple, guava and other fruit aromas and a variety of flowers. Some taste like citrus oil, orange peel or Earl Grey Tea. Others contain unique flavors of marshmallows and vanilla.

Why has Geisha become so popular recently?

After Geisha won the crown, BOP began to get a lot of attention. BOP is a coffee cup test competition founded by the Panamanian boutique coffee association in 1997. The coffee beans that won the first place in this competition will sell at a high price. Since then, Geisha has been very popular and made waves in the coffee industry.

Geisha is the standard of baristas competition.

It is often heard that baristas use Geisha to participate in the competition to achieve success, so after the competition, some coffee producers also received widespread attention. I believe that Geisha is a wonderful experience and will never let people down. Due to the good reputation of Geisha, it is undoubtedly an advantage to use it to participate in the competition, and many competition judges also prefer Geisha.

Today, the question before the game is no longer "who can use Geisha?" It's "who doesn't use Geisha?" I admit that Geisha will be used in many competitions, but in the past five years, no WBC champion has used it to compete. They all used specific varieties of coffee beans carefully selected by themselves and their team. This is not to say that these coffee beans are rare or special. Sasa Sestic, the 2015 WBC champion, used the Sudan Rume varietal, a legendary coffee bean that made him stand out. So I think for baristas, knowledge and love of coffee are the most important.

After years of experiments, the Emerald Manor has found that only the roses collected by coffee trees growing above 1400 meters above sea level can show the special flavor of roses. Therefore, the main classification is based on the planting height, supplemented by the actual cup test results, divided into "red, green, blue standard" grade roses summer beans.
