Honduras Finca el Puente Geisha

An award-winning Honduran Geisha from Marysabel Caballero & Moises Herrera.

Marysabel Caballero and Moises Herrera are widely regarded as two of the finest producers in Honduras — as focused on the social and environmental conditions around their farms as on the coffee itself. This Geisha comes from Finca el Puente in Chinacla, La Paz; Tim selected this particular lot from their separated first picking of the 2025 harvest.

Tasting notes: Sweet mandarin · jasmine · honey.

The variety

Geisha is famous for its floral, citrus-forward cup. Where Panamanian Geishas tend to be light and delicate, this Honduran-grown version carries a heavier mouthfeel, gentler acidity and a subtle herbal finish — recognisably Geisha, with its own accent.

How it's grown & processed

Ripe cherries are hand-picked and sorted as they are collected, de-pulped, fermented overnight, then washed in a channel that floats off the lighter, under-developed beans. Dried slowly on shaded raised beds near Marcala. A hard year of rain and frost meant nearly half the crop was sorted out — what remains is clean and aromatic.

Brew it

Filter. 55–65g per litre to let the florals sing. If the drawdown runs slow, don't grind coarser — give it time; lightly roasted, it stays balanced even with longer brews.
