This is a Gesha variety coffee from Elida Estate in Boquete, Panama (Barú Volcano National Park) grown at 1725 m. It is washed—pulped, fermented 30–40 hours, then sun-dried 15–20 days—and lightly roasted. Expect complex, floral, tea-like flavors with delicate acidity and a silky, refined body.
Founded in 2008 by Korean immigrants who opened their first shop on the brink of the financial crisis, Bean & Bean Coffee has evolved into a mother-daughter Q Grader duo operation led by Rachel and Jiyoon Han. Since opening the first shop on Rector & Broadway in 2008, they've grown Bean & Bean to four locations, now with a roastery in Queens, New York. Since they opened doors in New York City in 2008, Bean & Bean has been working to bridge the gender gap in coffee throughout the value chain. Currently more than half of all of our coffee is from farms that are owned and led by female producers.
