Coffea diversa Geisha Winey

From the renowned Coffea Diversa garden in Biolley, Costa Rica, this Geisha Winey micro-lot highlights the beauty and complexity of one of Ethiopia’s most storied wild varieties. With its tall, slender trees, elongated beans, and low yield, Geisha remains a prized rarity — and under the care of Gonzalo Hernandez, it finds new expression through innovative processing.

Processed using the winey method, this Geisha reveals a soft, delicate profile with floral notes of lavender, balanced by lemon, pineapple, honey and subtle hints of pipe tobacco. Its citric acidity, medium body, and silky mouthfeel give the cup both depth and refinement, while the cocoa-forward finish lingers gracefully.

Available in 10kg Grain-Pro bags for peak fresh quality, this limited micro-lot is ideal for roasters seeking to highlight a rare, high-scoring Geisha from one of the world’s most biodiverse coffee gardens. A true expression of Costa Rican craftsmanship and Coffea Diversa’s dedication to preserving and perfecting exceptional varieties.

A one-of-a-kind coffee garden

Coffea diversa is home to the world's largest private coffee varietal collection, with over 800 botanical coffee varieties. It is located in one of the remotest regions of Costa Rica. A region that is not traditionally known to produce coffee because it is geographically challenging. This region, however, has one of the best micro-climate soils and altitudes to grow coffee in the world. The altitude range at the Coffea diversa garden is 1200-1350 meters above sea level.
