Lamastus Elida Estate Torre Gesha Natural DRD [Score: 94.00]
We taste: Yellow mango, jackfruit, honey, rose apple, jasmine
Elida Estate sits above Boquete on the slopes of Volcán Barú, with the national park wrapped around it. Robert Louis Lamastus founded it in 1918, and his grandson Wilford runs it today. Torre is one of the estate’s most awarded plots, at 1,785 to 1,835 meters. This natural finished in Elida’s dark room, where temperature and humidity are held steady so the cherry dries slowly and evenly.
Altieri Dilgo Gesha Natural [Score: 91.00]
We taste: Pomarrosa, blueberry, lychee, tangerine
Eugene Altieri, known in Boquete as Don Gene, planted Mima Estate with Geisha seed from the Peterson family of Hacienda La Esmeralda. The estate’s plots are named for his ten grandchildren, and Dilgo, at 1,780 meters, was the first one planted with Geisha. Drying the cherries whole is where the syrupy berry comes from.
Janson Gesha Washed [Score: 87.75]
We taste: Stone fruit, jasmine, honeysuckle
The Janson family has farmed in Volcán, between the Tisingal and Barú volcanoes, since 1941. They separate their plots with stretches of forest, feed the soil with microorganisms instead of chemical fertilizers, and run the farm on 400 solar panels. This washed Green Tip Gesha from 1,700 meters is the delicate one in the box.
