Yan Qiu Qunfang-Geisha Coffee

Brief introduction of Geisha Coffee

In 1931, it was exported to Kenya in obscurity from Geisha Mountain Mountain in southwestern Ethiopia, wandered to Tanzania and Costa Rica, was transplanted to Panama in the 1960s, and then went through nearly half a century before it became a blockbuster, beating the victorious armies of Bourbon, Kaddura, Kaduai and Tibika to win the first prize of the Panamanian National Treasure Bean Cup Test Competition in 2005, 2006 and 2007. In 2007, the International famous Bean Cup Test sponsored by the American Fine Coffee Association (SCAA) won the championship again, and the bidding price was sold at US $130 per pound, setting a record for the highest price in the history of competition beans. It is reported that the later Panamanian national treasure bean competition will be divided into two groups: Rose Summer and non-Rose Summer, so as not to be robbed of the brilliance of other varieties by Rose Summer. Rosa is a member of the Tibika family, but it became famous more than 70 years after leaving Ethiopia, and fulfilled the saying that Ethiopia is a treasure trove of Arabica genes. Giving a variety to go abroad is enough to stir up trouble in the coffee market.

Geisha, which is grown in many parts of the world, is the new king of boutique coffee, with high quality and high prices in Latin American countries such as Panama, Guatemala and Colombia.

Characteristics of geisha coffee

Rosa coffee raw beans have a very beautiful blue-green, jade-like warm texture, smell fresh grass, peach, berry flavor and oolong tea unique milk sweetness that most coffee beans do not have. it seems that aroma and taste of this kind of things need to be associated, but a hint of tea smell is obvious to us.

In order to highlight the characteristics and aroma of this bean, the baking degree is on the verge of two explosions, and two explosions and one sound are more commonly used baking degrees, which can give play to the characteristics of the beans themselves. If they are too shallow, they will produce miscellaneous smells, and if they are too deep, they will lose the aroma of flowers and fruit acid. of course, this should be adjusted according to the characteristics of coffee beans and the roaster's understanding of the beans themselves.

Baked ripe beans look like some "wrinkles". Beans with "sexy folds" are all designed to highlight their original flavor and acidity, but if the quality of raw beans is not high, they will produce some miscellaneous flavors, such as rotten soil, grass and dry taste, which bakers should try to avoid. Baked rose summer has charming lemon and citrus aromas and super sweet honey cream flavor.

Geisha coffee flavor

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.

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.

The producing area of geisha coffee

Panamanian Jade Manor Panama Jade 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, swept the coffee world, and the coffee revolution was so menacing that the blue mountains of Jamaica and Kona of Hawaii, which had occupied the throne of the coffee kingdom for a long time, also 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, Esmeralda's rose summer coffee is the most famous coffee in the rose summer variety.

The geisha of La Esmeralda became world-famous coffee by accident. Retired Swedish banker Rudolph A. Peterson bought the Jade Manor in Panama to spend his twilight years. Unexpectedly, the coffee trees in the manor bore fruit and sent them to participate in the coffee competition. As a result, they became famous in World War I. Won the national championship of the Panamanian boutique coffee competition in 2004.

This coffee variety, which did not appear in the coffee competition, began to attract attention, but most people only held a wait-and-see attitude, and some even thought it was a fluke. They did not expect to win the championship again the next year, which should not be underestimated, but because of their low production, people turned to other countries to buy geisha coffee beans, and then the Emerald Manor won the championship year after year, becoming a Panamanian national treasure. But it is not enough to win the affirmation of Panama alone. In the SCAA (American Fine Coffee Association) competition in 2005, the jadeite manor geisha beat heroes from all over the world to win the title of number one in the world, and won the world championship again in 2006 and 2007. At this time, the jadeite manor geisha has become a shocking topic in the coffee industry all over the world.

With the aura of invincibility and invincibility, the geisha of the Emerald Manor has become a dream product of the coffee industry. "its flower smell is like fireworks, blooming in the mouth in the process of drinking, with juice like lemon, citrus and strawberry. Make it look like juice rather than coffee."
