About This Bean

Region: <meta charset="utf-8">Alto Quiel, Boquete, Chiriqui Elevation: 1800 masl <meta charset="utf-8">About: Rudolph Peterson purchased Hacienda La Esmeralda as a retirement venture in 1967, and his family has been tending to the land around the small town of Boquete ever since. In the early days, the land was primarily pasture for beef cattle, but over the years, the family transitioned to dairy cattle and coffee production. In 2004, the Peterson family, and Hacienda La Esmeralda, took the coffee world by storm. That year's Best of Panama competition saw Geisha reintroduced to the world, where it secured the highest price ever paid for coffee at auction. The Petersons now grow Geisha in many sections of their estate. This lot is from the Buena Vista section of El Velo, the newest of Hacienda La Esmeralda’s farms, neighboring other famed farms, such as Elida Estate and Mama Cata. While we’ve been purchasing coffees from the Peterson family for many years now, this is the first year purchasing coffees from El Velo – we can now say that we’ve completed the Peterson Family Trifecta.
