Processing method
Gesha Honey process
The honey process, often used with high-quality beans like Geisha coffee, consists of removing just the pulp from the coffee cherries after harvest. By removing the pulp, the cherry is left with its sweet and sticky honey, which is where the “honey” process gets its name from. Coffee cherries are then taken directly to bamboo beds to be dried in the sun. During this process, the beans need constant stirring in order to dry properly.
Honey-processed coffees, particularly specialty coffee from Panama, often exhibit a pronounced sweetness and complexity, due to the fruit’s honey layer that remains in contact with the bean during drying. The cup generally has a fuller body than washed coffee, but it is cleaner than naturally-processed coffee. Our coffee, celebrated for being one of the best of Panama, benefits greatly from this method, enhancing its unique flavors and qualities.
