Sensory Score & Experience

This Geisha coffee stood out among the beans sampled this year. From a price-to-flavor perspective, it is exceptional. The flavor profile showcases classic washed Geisha notes like jasmine, bergamot, orange, peach, and apricot, with unique undertones of elderflower and chamomile. The weightier body, lactic acidity, and creamy mouthfeel reveal the high-quality processing and exceptional green bean quality.

However, given its more affordable price compared to top-tier Geishas that exceed $100 per kg, its longevity during the degassing and flavor retention over time should be monitored. If it maintains its unique tones for an extended period, it could easily become a personal favorite of the year.
