The producer & process

Hacienda La Esmeralda

Durazno 4 FB is a washed Geisha from Hacienda La Esmeralda in Boquete, Panama, grown at 1,870 meters and above.

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

This selection comes from the Durazno lot at El Velo farm; “durazno” means peach. The cherries were depulped, fermented for 120 hours in a low-temperature room, and dried slowly on raised beds for 22 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.
