When mentioning the origin of Gesha, Front Street first thinks of Panama, the place where Gesha coffee is famous, and Ethiopia, the birthplace of Gesha coffee. These two places are undoubtedly the most representative places of production of Gesha.
Panamanian Geisha has an obvious tangerine and honey flavor. The fragrant floral fragrance is rich in juicy fruit sourness and sweetness, and is accompanied by the sweetness of tea. If you want to experience these exquisite flavors, you can buy the highest grade Front Street Jade Red Label Geisha and Front Street Emerald Green Label Geisha. When brewed by hand, it will reveal an intoxicating aroma.
Compared with Panama, Ethiopian Geisha has a brighter fruity and sour tone. Newbies are advised to try the entry-level Front Street Grana Geisha. Due to the medium-light roasting, the coffee not only retains the pleasant white floral aroma, but also highlights the sour and sweet textures such as orange, guava, and tangerine, while making the finish clearer.
If you want to challenge the manor-level Ethiopian Geisha, we recommend Front Street Geisha Village Gold Label and Front Street Gesha Village Red Label. Different from the small-scale harvesting and processing in other producing areas, Geisha Village is a rare large-scale estate in Ethiopia. Because it is located next to the original Geisha forest, coupled with strict quality control and standardized management, the Geisha coffee produced has an even better flavor. It is a must-buy Pour over(V60) item for advanced players.
In addition to hand brewing, Geisha can also make SOE coffee. However, using single-origin coffee beans for extraction is actually to hope that the espresso coffee can have a richer flavor expression under pressurized extraction. Dark roasted coffee beans often only have a monotonous mellow feeling, lacking the surprising and lively flavor. Therefore, if you are making Gesha SOE coffee, you must use medium roasted coffee beans with outstanding flavor.
For this reason, we recommend purchasing the medium-roasted Front Street Grana Gesha SOE, which can highlight the caramel feeling of coffee and give the espresso a moderate amount of oil while retaining the rich floral and fruity aroma. The American style has the flavor of orange, nuts and blueberries, and the latte has the smooth taste of butter cookies.
