William Bout was born in the Netherlands and his family runs a cafe called Golden Coffee Box in Barren, so he was fascinated by coffee at an early age. After graduating from college, he first worked and studied in his father's coffee shop, then moved to the United States and worked for the German Bean Dryer Company in San Francisco. In 1999, William Bout founded his first company, Boot Coffee Consulting, which served coffee companies around the world for nearly 15 years.

William Bout had his first coffee called geisha / Geisha/Gesha at Best of Panama in 2004, reversing his understanding of the world of boutique coffee. In 2006, William Bout planted his first geisha sapling at his own Panama mule estate (Finca La Mula), and in 2009, he created a second estate, Finca Sophia, at an altitude of 6000 feet. In 2014, Donkey Farm first participated in the Best of Panama and won the championship in the Sunshine Group and gained a high reputation.

In 2004, William Bout learned that there was a piece of land near Mount Baru and bought it. It was later known as "Donkey Manor"-La Mula. William Bout planted Geisha on his estate in 2006 because he fell in love with Geisha during a cup test.

William Bout's love and attachment to Geisha did not stop because of the establishment or award of the manor, but created a deeper sense of mission for a geisha to find its roots. William Bout organized several expeditions to the western producing areas of Ethiopia, and after several searches, he was locked in a small forest not far from the geisha town in Bench Maji province, collected some samples and began to analyze the flavor, and asked Dr. Sarada Krishnan, an expert from the Denver Botanical Garden, to study the Panamanian geisha and Ethiopian native geisha from a genetic point of view.

Mule Manor has a higher altitude (about 1700-1800 meters) so that coffee beans have a higher density than other rose summers. Recent measurements show that the density of mule Rosa peas can reach 840kg / m3, which is 5% higher than that of Rosa growing at 1550 meters above sea level, and it is more difficult for heat to enter the bean core. The characteristic of high density brought about by high altitude is contrary to the effect of the extended centerline, which makes baking more complex. The most difficult part is to show the flavor of the flowers. Excessive use of hot air does not help the fragrance of flowers. The more hot air is used, the more time it takes for coffee to develop its floral flavor.
