Rast Coffee Gesha Washed, Panama
Immerse yourself in the world of premium coffees: with Gesha washed from Rast Kaffee, you will experience a rarity that is one of Panama's best speciality coffees. This single origin from Santa Clara shows how balanced elegance and complex flavours come together in perfect harmony.
Gesha washed impresses with its fine but clearly noticeable acidity, which gives it a lively freshness. Citrus and black tea unfold on the nose, while bergamot, jasmine, honey and apple come together in a harmonious interplay on the palate. The result is an exceptional coffee that combines complexity with clarity and will delight you sip after sip.
This Gesha is best enjoyed as a filter coffee, where its floral and fruity notes can unfold their full radiance. It also impresses as a café crème with its fine structure. It is less suitable for espresso, as its bright, complex flavour comes out more clearly in filter preparation.
Gesha comes from the traditional Finca Hartmann in Santa Clara, which has been one of Panama's most renowned producers for almost 100 years. Today, siblings Maria and Plinio Ruiz run the family business Casa Ruiz with passion and respect for nature. The growing area lies between 1,300 and 2,000 metres above sea level, surrounded by forest reserves at the Parque Internacional La Amistad. The Hartmann family favours sustainable shade cultivation under native rainforest trees, thus maintaining a closed cycle that preserves biodiversity.
This Gesha is a SHB quality (Strictly Hard Bean) and is processed in the Chiriquí region. The washed method emphasises its clear structure and lively acidity. Directly traded (Label Direct Trade), it stands for maximum transparency and quality. The harvest period is between December and April, with only the ripest cherries being picked by hand. A coffee for special moments - exclusive, full of character and of sustainable origin.

Fresh Service: This coffee is freshly roasted for you every Monday and shipped two days later.
Some companies take a short break during the public holidays. It is therefore possible that your order will not be dispatched until after the holidays. Thank you for your understanding
We recommend that espresso roasts be used 12 days after the roast date or filter coffees 5 days after the roast date found on the package. Freshly roasted coffee needs this time until it is ready for a constant extraction.
We ask that the order is always sent before 23:59 on Sunday, so that we can ensure a shipment on the following Wednesday.
