FrontStreet Coffee - Introduction to Esmeralda Geisha

Panama Esmeralda Estate Red Label Geisha.

The Red Label Geisha comes from Panama's very famous Esmeralda Estate, located in Panama's premium coffee growing region of Boquete. Esmeralda Specialty is a rare award-winning estate auction coffee. Its entry presents oolong tea fragrance, peach aroma, and honey notes, fresh and comforting, bright yet balanced, with an extremely strong sense of aromatic layers. The entire aroma is wrapped together with caramel sweetness, and upon entry, the tongue perceives distinct fruit acidity, which becomes gentle and rounded in the mouth.

The fruit sweetness and aftertaste are intense, like drinking a mouthful of fresh fruit tea, refreshing to the heart. The lower the temperature, the more delicate the acidity.

Geisha is divided into Red Label, Green Label, and Blue Label:

Red Label (Special-Geisha): Features the finest batches from Esmeralda Estate, all grown at altitudes above 1,600 meters (some even above 1,900 meters), with cupping scores of 90 points or above;

Green Label (Private Collection-Geisha): A blend of Geisha from different plots across Esmeralda's estates, grown at altitudes between 1,600-1,800 meters;

Blue Label (Geisha 1500): A blend of Geisha from various Esmeralda estates, grown at altitudes above 1,400 meters;

Esmeralda Red Label, as a premium brand, has three main characteristics:

1. Strong traceability: Each batch can be traced back to the picking date, specific plot, tree age of the plot, etc.; while Green and Blue Labels are blends of Geisha from various plots;

2. Highest altitude: All batches are grown at altitudes above 1,600 meters, with some above 1,900 meters;

3. Highest cupping scores: Only batches with cupping scores reaching 90 points (SCAA standard) or above can be called Red Label;
