Gesha coffee is a member of the Arabica variety and originated in the Ethiopian region of Africa.
AlthoughGesha varietiesOriginated from Ethiopia, but became famous in Panama. When coffee fans around the world highly praised Geisha, a group of coffee-loving dreamers returned to its place of origin, searched for its roots and tried to grow Geisha coffee beans of the same quality here.
Although they are both Gesha, the Gesha coffee grown in Panama/Central and South America and the Gesha coffee grown in Ethiopia are actually two different varieties.
According to the comparison of Front Street coffee, it was found that whether it is Geisha coffee grown in Panama or other Central and South American countries, the flavor characteristics of this variety are delicate fruit acidity, floral aroma, sweet caramel, and tea taste; while the flavor of Geisha coffee from Ethiopia is citrus, almond, and lemon.
Generally speaking, the Ethiopian Geisha coffee variety has stronger acidity and brighter flavor, while the Geisha coffee from Panama/Central and South America has a more delicate and rich flavor, with a caramel feeling, so it tastes more balanced. For those who are trying Gesha for the first time, we would first recommend the iconic Front Street Emerald Estate Red Label Gesha and Front Street Emerald Estate Green Label Gesha.

The flavor is characterized by white floral aromas such as jasmine and ginger flowers, refreshing acidity like citrus, sweetness like Tieguanyin, and a honey-like aftertaste.
Because the flavor is pure, the aroma is outstanding, and they are all high-end batches, you can buy Qian Street Jade Green Label and Qian Street Jade Red Label home, brew a cup yourself and taste it carefully. It is also suitable as a gift for relatives and friends, which is noble and generous.
But if you are looking for more affordable Geisha coffee, you should focus on the Ethiopian production area. Most of the Geisha here are of ration level and are more suitable for beginners, so you can practice extraction with confidence and boldness.

The purpose is to make perfect espresso, so it is also called Front Street Grana Gesha SOE.

At the same time, fine-tuning between sour, sweet and bitter flavors can be done to maximize the display of fruit flavor without losing body.
