Geisha coffee comes from South America and is a medium blend. It was originally collected from the Ethiopian forests near Gesha Mountain in the 1930s, according to Proud Mary. It was then distributed to Panama in the 1960s.
It didn’t become popular until 2005 when the Peterson family submitted it for the Best of Panama competition. He broke the then record of $20 per pound.
The bean bag came with a certificate of authenticity and has notes of jasmine, strawberry, passion fruit, and blackberry.

The Hartmann family, which created the blend this year, has been considered “one of the pioneer families in the production of specialty coffees in Panama,” Proud Mary noted on its website.
The family settled in Panama in 1912 from Moravia, the present-day Czech Republic, and bought 100 hectares of virgin rainforest, where they continue to grow coffee beans under the shade of the canopy.
Proud Mary has been working with the Hartmann family since 2011 to bring many blends to the US and Australia. She will also be offering five other Hartmann family blends during the month of February, including three espressos and two Geisha coffees.
Proud Mary opened its first US story in Portland in 2017.
