Layered and vivid, bergamot and jasmine florality intertwine with watermelon and blackberry sweetness, all lifted by a violet aromatic. In the cup: bergamot, watermelon, violet, blackberry, and jasmine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e Hacienda La Esmeralda needs little introduction. In 2004, the Peterson family won the Best of Panama competition with an exceptional Gesha — a variety previously unknown in the region — and in doing so reshaped the trajectory of specialty coffee entirely. The farm remains one of the most renowned in the world, instrumental in building Panama's global reputation for Gesha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e Aguila 4 NC was harvested on February 16th, 2026, from the Aguila lot within El Vélo Farm. After harvest, cherries were dried for 44 days on raised beds inside a climate-controlled drying room — an indoor facility with constant airflow and precise temperature and humidity control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis extended, climate-controlled 44-day drying is the defining step — it's what builds the remarkable layering of florals, watermelon sweetness, and blackberry depth that define this cup, letting Gesha's natural complexity fully develop under precise conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e Layered and vivid — bergamot and jasmine florality intertwine with watermelon and blackberry sweetness, with a violet aromatic threading throughout.
