Intense sweetness of Panamanian Rosa Coffee introduces the Esmeralda Manor of Mount Baru.

The fragrance of flowers, tropical fruits, strong sweetness; these are the feelings that Rose Summer has always given us. Properly baked, they make you feel like sipping the fragrance of a bouquet of flowers. You may not know the story of Rosa, an ancient native species from Ethiopia that was brought as a coffee sample to a coffee experimental garden in Costa Rica and distributed to several small farms for small-scale trials.

Not many people followed Rose Summer until one day, Esmeralda Manor in Panama separated it from other varieties and won the national coffee competition.

She is so extraordinary that the fruity and floral elements are like Yega Xuefei from Africa and Ethiopia on the other side of the world. Of course, these are all old news now. Some small farms also get summer roses and are eager to grow their own roses.

However, the results are different, and this "star" variety seems to have different tastes in different geographical locations due to the influence of weather, soil and altitude. However, in the Aktenango region, we see typical rosy summer features: the slender shape of beans, the changes during baking, and the elegant and uncooked flavor in the cup.

The dry aroma of Rosa is very bright, with aromas of rose and jasmine, with aromas of pomelo and citrus, light baked with nutty aromas, and wet aromas with hazelnut and more floral characters. In terms of taste and flavor, compared with the previously rising aroma, it may be slightly mild and subtle in the early stage, and the flower and fruit flavor will gradually increase as the temperature drops, and the cold aroma is excellent (sweet preserved fruit, rose fruit, orange glaze jam, strawberry jam, silk pine, cherry, vanilla and rose gradually fade, leading to lemon-flavored fruit). This is a coffee that can be praised by a large number of adjectives, the sweetness of the silk, which is testing the brightness of this coffee, especially when it is lightly roasted.

Panamanian Jade Manor

Panamanian Emerald Manor-Esmeralda Manor (Panama Geisha Hacienda La Esmeralda)

In the early years, the identification of top coffee mostly followed Japan, while Geisha, with its hurricane-like power, hit the coffee world. The coffee revolution was so fierce that the Blue Mountains of Jamaica and Kona of Hawaii, which had occupied the throne of the coffee kingdom for a long time, had to retreat. This wild species, which originated in Ethiopia, is now widely used in major coffee producing areas after numerous battles. And its best spokesman is the "La Esmeralda" manor from Panama. The rose summer coffee of Esmeralda is the most famous coffee in the rose summer variety.
