ROAST DATES: 7/7, 7/14, 7/21, 7/28
Enigmatic, exclusive, unforgettable, phenomenal, "God in a cup". These have all been used to describe the elusive, sexy Geisha coffee variety, originally from the Gori Gesha Forest in Ethiopia and now grown in Kona.
Geisha coffee is a variety that originated in Ethiopia and is renowned for the aromatic, complex, floral, and fruit-forward profile it produces. Because of the unusual flavor profile, rarity, production cost, and demand, Geisha coffees have become an aficionado's obsession. In 2019, a Panama Geisha coffee crushed the record for the highest price paid for coffee at auction, selling at $1029/lb green (unroasted), equating to $2,522/lb roasted.
This beautiful Kona Geisha coffee is grown by Kraig Lee who owns and operates Kona Farm Direct, a 6-acre farm located in the Holualoa area of Hawai’i Island.
This was the second year of harvest on Kraig’s Geisha trees. This Geisha was processed as a washed yeast fermentation. After harvest, the cherries were pulped and shortly thereafter placed in open tubs where they were inoculated with a white wine yeast. By processing the coffee with wine yeast under controlled fermentation, producers like Kraig can 'dial in' the flavor profile of the coffee in the same way that vintners do with wine.

Because Espresso Bites are made without stabilizers or preservatives, they may bloom or melt when shipping temperatures exceed 80 F. If this is a concern in your location please select FedEx shipping.
If you notice a white color to your bar, it's perfectly safe to eat. This happens when the cocoa butter softens and migrates to the surface. It happens more often when shipping in warm weather. Learn more about blooming.
Espresso Bites that melt or bloom when shipped via FedEx are eligible for a full refund or credit.
Espresso Bites that melt or bloom when the buyer elects Free Shipping or standard USPS are eligible for a credit.
