Description
Eugene Altieri (Don Gene) started growing coffee in Boquete over 20 years ago. With no prior experience in the coffee industry but a keen business mind, Don Gene saw the potential for a thriving family business. The family's two farms; Mima and Pipim, are located in Alto Quiel and Alto Lino respectively, and are planted with Caturra, Catuai, Typica, and Geisha. Altieri's Geisha has a storied lineage with exceptional quality; Don Gene purchased Geisha seeds from the Peterson family of Hacienda La Esmeralda who reintroduced Geisha to the world in 2004, winning the Best of Panama competition. After Don Gene's (semi) retirement seven years ago, the family business is now run by his children, including Anna Lynn and Francisco, and farm manager Roger Pitti. All of the Altieri family’s Geisha is planted at Mima Estate, just to the Southeast of the Volcán Barú National Park, and the different sections on the farm are named after Eugene’s grandchildren. This Geisha is from the Chombi section of Mima Estate and was processed using the traditional washed method, to produce that classic profile of citrus, florals, and elegance, that we all expect from Panamanian Geisha. How to Drink: Just like you wouldn't add soda to your best whiskey, this amazing coffee is meant to be drank black with no sugar or cream.
