Panama - Hacienda La Esmeralda - Trapiche 2 AFB washed Geisha
This beautiful lot from Hacienda La Esmeralda is a stunningly perfumed washed Geisha with violet, honeysuckle, bergamot, and crystalline sweetness.
Its aromatic profile evolves beautifully with rest time: from jasmine‑citrus tension when fresh to deeper violet and bergamot as it ages. The mouthfeel is silky, supported by a juicy acidity that brightens the cup and carries the floral sweetness into a long, lingering finish.
Because this lot performs exceptionally well across different extraction styles and roast levels, we offer two roast profiles:
- Omni‑light: purple‑toned sweetness, silky mouthfeel, buttery finish
- Ultra‑light: creamier jasmine‑citrus shifting toward bergamot with rest, lighter texture
Across filter and espresso, Trapiche remains a floral‑sweet shape‑shifter, rewarding every brew with new nuances.
