Its wild aroma surpasses Harrar coffee, emitting notes of chocolate, caramel, and even mocha coffee. Yemen Mocha Mattari - traditional sun-drying, tasting the ancient mocha flavor reborn from the flames of war.

Remember last time, because orders were roasted fresh, we spent three days and nights at full stretch and finally shipped all the 9.9 yuan Yunnan Typica. We truly did not expect our fans to be so enthusiastic about the previous promotion.

Mainly, we have tasted this bean ourselves and found it distinctive, so we are taking advantage of the shopping-season promotion to promote Yunnan specialty beans too and see how everyone receives them.

Our fans were also amazed by the gentle acidity and brown sugar flavors, seizing the chance to taste local specialty coffee and experience the taste of Yunnan. So this time we are offering the group deal again - 19.9 yuan for a half pound, 19.9 yuan, and with free shipping.

In addition, we have sourced this year's 2018 new harvest season Horse Queen 2.0, another rare excellent bean this year, outstanding in both aroma and cleanliness.

Back and forth, we cupped 4-5 groups of "Horse Queen" profiles. After several rounds of cupping, the feedback went to our roaster, who optimized the profiles to better present the flavor characteristics of "Horse Queen." The optimized "Horse Queen" shows improved cleanliness and sweetness, with some strawberry after-notes, a floral aroma of premium perfume-like quality, and juicy tropical fruit notes.

39.9 yuan for a half pound - where else can you find such a deal? Even our editor could not resist stocking up. Freshly roasted!

So what exactly do the new-harvest Horse Queen 2.0 and the pure-heritage Yunnan Baoshan Typica taste like?

FrontStreet Coffee Recommendation

Geisha is one of the most popular varieties in Arabica coffee, admired for its unique floral aroma and superb sweet-tart balance, and it commands a high price because of its low yields, weak disease resistance, and demanding cultivation. The variety first became famous through Panama's Emerald Estate, whose Geisha line is divided into Red Label and Green Label. FrontStreet Red Label Geisha is officially called "Esmeralda Special," grown at 1600-1800 meters; every lot must cup above 90 points, each carries its own number, and all the coffee in a lot comes from a single small plot - FrontStreet Red Label comes from the Hacienda plot - so buyers can pick a lot to match their flavor preference. FrontStreet Green Label Geisha is officially "Private Collection," recognized by its green label, and rather than emphasizing detailed plot information it blends lots from several plots to express Emerald Estate's signature high-altitude Geisha character, which makes it more affordable and very good value.

Ethiopia, coffee's birthplace, also has an estate famous for the variety: Geisha Village, with a system as strict as Panama's. Panama's Emerald Estate divides its Geisha mainly into Red and Green Label, while Geisha Village's grading is more complex. It grows three Geisha varieties - Gori Gesha, Gesha 1931, and Illubabor Forest - and grades them as Gold Label RARITIES, Red Label GROWERS RESERVE, Green Label SINGLE-TERROIR, and CHAKA batches. Geisha Village Gold Label is the Gesha 1931 variety and accounts for 10% of the estate's total production; it is the estate's top non-auction coffee and is often chosen by baristas competing internationally. The Gold Label lot is carefully natural processed and shows complex, rich flavor. Geisha Village Red Label is the Gori Gesha variety and accounts for 15% of production, scoring 88 points or above on the SCA 100-point scale; it is the estate's single-terroir series, so every lot carries complete traceability information including farm block name, variety, and processing date.

Graciano Estate sits on the FrontStreet Granada Gesha farm in Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia, and is one of the rare estates growing a single variety. This FrontStreet Granada Gesha comes from the Granada processing station at the border of Ethiopia's Kochere and Granada Abaya areas; the station was founded in 2014 and is managed by Mr. Israel Degefa, covering as much as 700 hectares of coffee-growing land, most of it uncultivated, with fertile soil and shade trees throughout. Fully ripe cherries are hand-picked, then dried on raised beds for 14-20 days depending on the weather, which is how this Granada Estate sun-dried Geisha is made. It is best medium-light roasted; brewed, it shows bright citrus acidity, elegant ginger-lily aroma, the full sweetness of ripe fruit, and a fine, silky body with Geisha's signature refined finish.

Geisha is a medium-light roasted, floral-and-fruity coffee with a hard density that tends to sink and clog the drain hole, so FrontStreet recommends a grind passing 78% through a Chinese standard No. 20 sieve (about fine-sugar size) and a brewing temperature of 91°C. For pour-over, use 15g of coffee in a small Hario V60 at a 1:16 ratio, then brew in three stages: start the timer and pour to 30g for a 30-second bloom; then a gentle circling pour to 125g, waiting until the water in the bed drops halfway before continuing a gentle circling pour to 225g; once fully drained, total extraction is about 2 minutes 10 seconds to 2 minutes 20 seconds. Geisha also works as an SOE: for an espresso single origin, medium-roasted FrontStreet Granada Estate Gesha SOE keeps Geisha's floral and fruity character and ripe dried-fruit sweetness while adding Ethiopian white florals and lemon-bright acidity, so the espresso shows dried apricot, caramel, and nuts. A suggested recipe is 20g of coffee, a 1:2 coffee-to-liquid ratio, a 25-second extraction, and 40g of espresso; for an SOE americano add 200g of hot water at 1:5 for orange, nut, and blueberry notes, and for an SOE latte add 200g of milk for a creamy shortbread smoothness.
