LIMITED RELEASE Wilder calls this GeishaGesha (Geisha)A rare, jasmine-and-bergamot scented variety originally from Ethiopia's Gesha forest, made famous by Panama's Hacienda La Esmeralda. Routinely the most expensive coffee at auction. from his farm Bella Alajandría, "Pure Genetics." "Wilder went crazy..." He cupped tree by tree and chose a genotype that tasted more like jasmine and lemongrass; made seedlings and planted 1,000 trees. From that lot, he re-did the experiment, only choosing the most floral Geishas, made seedlings, and planted again. In order to highlight the floral characters of the coffee, Wilder fermented this Geisha for 36 hours and set the coffee out to dry for 12 days on raised beds.
