An exceptional example of Gesha, bursting with floral aromatics and tropical fruit sweetness. It also offers a wonderful syrupy texture, something we associate with the freezing of green coffee. Elida Washed Gesha was cultivated on Panama’s renowned Elida Estate, where four generations of the Lamastus family have dedicated themselves to producing exceptional coffee. In 2018, Lamastus Family Estates made Best of Panama history, winning both the washed and natural Gesha categories whilst setting a new record for the competition’s highest score. We first launched this coffee in 2024 for LRR 020 and have kept a bag of green carefully stored in our freezer ever since. We bought this lot directly from Wilford Lamastus Junior. This followed a conversation between Maxwell and Wilford where they connected over a shared passion for quality and innovation. Maxwell requested samples of their cleanest and most aromatic coffees. Two years later, this coffee still perfectly fits that description. Located within the Volcan Baru National Park, the Elida Estate benefits from a unique microclimate, with cool temperatures, high altitudes, and rich volcanic soils contributing to the coffee’s distinctive character. The Gesha trees thrive in this immaculate and biodiverse environment. These high-altitude conditions offer low night temperatures that slow the ripening process, allowing the beans to develop exceptional sweetness and complexity. The washed process used for this lot is a traditional method perfected over generations. Hand-picked at peak ripeness, the cherries undergo a 36-to-48-hour fermentation period in the cool mountain air. Then they are washed and slowly dried for 15 to 20 days on raised beds. This careful processing reveals the purity of the Gesha variety while preserving the estate’s terroir-driven nuances.

Owned by Edgar Gutiérrez, the farm sits at elevations of approximately 1,300 to 1,450 metres above sea level. Its volcanic soils, cool temperatures, abundant rainfall, and mountainous terrain create ideal conditions for growing high-quality Arabica coffee. The farm was originally a dairy operation owned by the Gutiérrez family for three generations. In 2017, the family began converting parts of the property into coffee plantations, transforming former grazing land into productive coffee fields while encouraging more sustainable land management. Corpachi grows several varieties, including Geisha, Pacamara, Caturra, Venecia, Sarchimor, and the rare ETH47. The farm produces carefully managed microlots using washed, natural, and honey processing methods, selected to highlight the individual characteristics of each variety. Despite being relatively young, Corpachi has gained recognition for its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and quality, becoming an exciting producer within Panama’s specialty coffee industry. PROCESS ETH47, also known as Etiope 47 or ET47, is a relatively new coffee variety with its roots in Costa Rica. Around 2020, Ethiopian heirloom coffee material was introduced into Costa Rica and hybridised as part of efforts to develop plants with greater resilience to coffee leaf rust. The name “47” refers to the 47th attempt in this selection process, making ETH47 a product of relatively recent breeding work rather than a traditional, long-established variety. What makes this particular lot especially interesting is its journey from Costa Rica to Panama. Coffee expert Jonathan Vaz Matias personally brought ETH47 material across the border and established it at Corpachi Farm in the Cordillera region, where producer Edgar Gutiérrez now cultivates the variety. At approximately 1,450 metres, Corpachi represents one of the early examples of ETH47 being grown commercially in Panama, making this coffee a fascinating chapter in the variety’s development and wider story.

Producer - Magma Coffee Origin - Panama Process - Honey Varietal - Geisha Altitude - 1500-2200 MASL Flavour Notes - Jasmine, Peach, Tangerine Best for: Filter roast level: Extremely Light Farm Magma Coffee Plantations was born from a journey that began far from the volcanic mountains of Panama. Founder Dinesh Kumar was raised in a small farming village in India, where agriculture was a way of life. As the son of a farmer, he developed a deep respect for the land, nature, and the dedication required to cultivate something exceptional. After earning his engineering degree, Dinesh began his career in India before relocating to the United States in 1993, where he built a successful business career. Despite his achievements, his passion for farming remained strong. Inspired by the memory of his late father and encouraged by his daughter, he returned to his agricultural roots. In 2020, Dinesh acquired land along the Río Breque in the Cordillera region of Chiriquí, Panama, with a vision of producing world-class specialty coffee. The first Geisha coffee trees were planted in 2021, marking the beginning of Magma Coffee Plantations. Today, the plantation is dedicated to producing exceptional Geisha coffee through sustainable farming and respect for the environment. Nestled in the highlands of Chiriquí, its mineral-rich volcanic soils, high elevations, cool mountain climate, and pure water create ideal growing conditions, allowing the coffee cherries to mature slowly and develop the elegant flavors and floral character that define Panama's finest Geisha coffees..
