Costa Rica Geisha Coffee

Coffee planting in Costa Rica goes back to the late 1700s and it was the first Central American country to have an established coffee industry. Costa Rica Geisha (aka “Gesha coffee”) distinguishes itself as one of the world’s most exceptional specialty coffees. This coffee is grown at high altitude in Costa Rica’s district of Biolley, close to the border with Panama. The Geisha coffee varietal was first discovered in Ethiopia in the 1930s and it reached specialty coffee stardom in 2004, when it won an important competition in nearby Panama and caught the attention of international experts. Since then, Geisha coffee has been consecutively breaking price records due to its unique flavor and scarcity .
