Region: Las Flores, Santa Barbara Elevation: 1500-1550 masl About: The Fernandez family’s adventure in coffee began in 1970, when Nahun’s grandfather moved to Santa Barbara, purchased some land, and planted his first coffee trees . Over the years, each member of Nahun’s family has grown coffee on the same land, passed down through the generations. Today, Nahun’s father, bro thers, and children all still farm the land that’s become known as Finca Don Andres (named after Nahun’s father). More recently, Nahun purchased a new farm located higher up the mountain , near the tiny community of Ocotillo. The higher altitude, cooler temperatures, and thick layer of fog that often shrouds the farm make it perfect for growing 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.. The story of Panamanian Geisha growing in Santa Barbara will forever be tied to Proud Mary. During various visits, Proud Mary founder, Nolan Hirte, brought seeds from some of the most famous farms in Panama. This means that Nahun 's Geisha comes from the same genetic lineage as the best Geishas in the world. This coffee is sweet and floral, with delicate citrus and stone fruit notes.
