Aril Geisha · Finca Deborah

Finca Deborah, one of the most celebrated, highest and remote, shade-grownGeisha farms in the world, is shrouded in rain-forest cloud coverage for much of the year. Deborah's soils are volcanic, highly organic, and nutrient rich, ideally suited for extreme elevation coffee production.The extreme elevation and reduced temperature slows the metabolism of the trees, allowing the trees to push more sugars into the cherries during production. Additionally, Deborah has ideal rainfall averaging 2200 mm per year. It is an extraordinary environment for growing any variety of coffee, but here one of the world’s most complicated varieties of coffee, Geisha, not only grows successfully but also thrives. No pesticides or herbicides are used on Jamison’s farms.
