Processing & Craft
Grown at extreme altitude, this Green Tip Geisha matures slowly in the cool, misty mountains of Boquete.
The natural process enhances fruit concentration while preserving clarity and balance, resulting in a cup that is both expressive and refined.
Careful fermentation and extended drying allow sweetness and aromatics to fully develop, creating a silky texture and long, clean finish.
 
Producer Story
Los Lajones is owned and operated by Graciano Cruz, a pioneering figure in Panamanian specialty coffee and the founder of HiU Coffee.
Planted over 15 years ago, the original Geisha trees at Los Lajones—known as the “Queen” trees—were grown from seeds that required years to mature due to the farm’s high elevation. Their offspring, the “Princess” generation, continue this legacy today.
Founded in 1992, Los Lajones has consistently proven its quality on the international stage, including multiple placements at Best of Panama, reaffirming its status as one of Panama’s elite Geisha producers.
 
In the Cup
Floral aromatics lead with violet and delicate jasmine tones.
On the palate, raspberry and blackberry sweetness shine with a candy-like clarity.
The body is silky and coating, finishing clean with refined sweetness and balance.
