About Morgan Estate

Morgan Estate is located southwest of the Baru Volcano, known as the highest peak in Panama. The estate covers an area of approximately five hectares, with an average of two thousand coffee trees planted per hectare. Due to the growth characteristics of the plants and planting philosophy, only some coffee trees can produce coffee fruits each season. The coffee fruits undergo meticulous re-selection and processing, with only a small amount of coffee beans eventually reaching the market.

Morgan Estate is simultaneously influenced by Atlantic monsoon climate and Pacific monsoon climate. The microclimate within the estate is rich and varied, with significant temperature differences between day and night. This delays the maturation period of coffee fruits, allowing for more complete development and enhanced sweetness. Due to the high altitude, the estate's terrain is predominantly mountainous, with coffee planted on steep slopes, which increases the difficulty of coffee tree management and fruit harvesting. For coffee tree management, if a tree is found to be infested with pests, the estate will completely remove the entire tree and renew the soil to isolate the disease and protect other healthy coffee trees.

This has kept Morgan Estate's green bean prices at a high level in the market, with customers basically being competition baristas within the coffee industry. These top baristas believe that whether a coffee can become a good cup is determined from when it is still a green bean or even a seed. For example, Morgan Estate's Geisha is destined to become an extraordinary cup from its green bean stage.

About Geisha Coffee

Geisha is pronounced the same as the Japanese word "geisha," hence it is also known as Geisha coffee. Because the tree variety is taller than typical coffee trees, it was originally planted in a small area within the estate and used as a windbreak. The estate owner's son, to participate in the annual Panama Best Coffee competition, searched through all coffee tree varieties in the estate for testing, giving Geisha the opportunity to make its debut. Since then, it has also participated in various world coffee competitions, winning a total of eleven championships.

The Geisha variety was discovered in the Geisha forest of Ethiopia in 1931 and then sent to the Coffee Research Institute in Kenya. In 1936, it was introduced to Uganda and Tanzania. Costa Rica introduced it in 1953. For a long time, not many people paid attention to Geisha until one day, Don Pachi initially brought it from the small town of GESHA in southwestern Ethiopia to Costa Rica. Later, Geisha entered Panama along the southern route, where Panama's Esmeralda Estate separated it from other varieties and it won the national coffee championship.

Geisha has full sweetness, an extremely clean口感, and rich aromas that extend from berries and citrus to mango, papaya, and peach flavors. A very distinct bergamot-like aftertaste is also its typical cupping attribute. To date, Geisha has remained the champion among coffee varieties.
