Coffee #1

Elipse Gesha - Iris Estate

Roasted (11/8/2025)

Tastes Like: Red Apple, Berries, Hibiscus

Origin: Iris Estate, Volcan, Chiriqui, Panama

Variety: Gesha

Producer: Jamison Savage

Elevation: 2,300 masl

Process: Nitrogen Macerated Natural, Washed Finish

Hydrangea celebrates this Jamison Savage coffee for its elegant balance of fruit and floral notes—think red apple, candied raspberry, strawberry, and hibiscus tea.

Using a hybrid process inspired by wine fermentation, cherries ferment naturally in sealed, nitrogen-flushed tanks for 100 hours before being washed and dried.

This method creates a clean, nuanced cup with refined fruit expression.

Known for innovative processing, Savage’s coffees have excelled in global competitions, including the 2024 and 2025 Barista Championships.

Hydrangea loves how this coffee evokes festive red fruit flavors perfect for the season.
