Learn how Colombia’s Hopes Farm successfully cultivated Panama’s award-winning Geisha variety—and what makes its Colombian-grown version unique.

Ever wonder how a single coffee variety—originally from Ethiopia—ended up making headlines in Panama, then crossed into Colombia to win major awards? The story of Geisha coffee reads like a global treasure hunt, starting deep in Africa, jumping continents, and eventually finding success thousands of miles from where it first gained fame. But not many know that before Panama’s Geisha became iconic, another farm had already started planting it—with surprising results.
