The producer & process

Hacienda La Esmeralda

Cabaña Arriba 5 is a naturally processed Geisha from Hacienda La Esmeralda in Boquete, Panama, grown at 1,700 meters.

The Peterson family’s Hacienda La Esmeralda helped bring Panama Geisha to international attention at the 2004 Best of Panama competition, where its jasmine-like aromatics stood out and the coffee achieved a record-breaking auction result. At the 2025 Best of Panama auction, an Esmeralda washed Geisha sold for US$30,204 per kilogram. The estate continues to explore the relationship between terroir, processing and cup quality.

Processing details

Cabaña Arriba 5 NB comes from the highest part of the Cabaña lot at Cañas Verdes Farm. “Arriba” means up or above. After harvest, the cherries were transported to Esmeralda’s Palmira mill and dried slowly on raised beds for 28 days.

Brewing & resting

Our standard pour-over starts with 15 g of coffee and 225–240 g of water at 88–92°C. Adjust for your grinder and the coffee’s time off roast.

Leave the bag sealed for at least two weeks after the roast date. Most of our coffees taste best around four weeks after roast.
