The anaerobic natural process adds a candied fruit aromatic layer, while the cup maintains enough clarity and structure to keep the florals and fresh fruit in focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFarm \/ Producer \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHacienda La Esmeralda is the Peterson family’s estate in Boquete, Chiriquí, Panama, and one of the defining farms associated with Panama Gesha. The Mario Arriba lot is connected to Jaramillo, a cool, misty highland farm where Esmeralda’s lot separation and high-elevation Gesha plantings helped bring the variety’s floral profile into focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJaramillo’s terrain is steep and manually harvested, with cool mountain air and established shade trees contributing to a slower, more aromatic expression of Gesha. In this lot, the site and variety provide a floral framework while the anaerobic natural processing emphasizes red fruit, sweetness, and candied aromatics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGesha is a variety best known in Panama for high cup quality at elevation and a profile that often emphasizes florality, delicate fruit, and tea-like structure. In this coffee, the variety gives shape to the cup: the floral aromatics and lifted acidity help balance the amplified raspberry and Gamay-like fruit from the anaerobic natural process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcessing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMario Arriba 6 ANC was harvested on March 9th, 2026 from the highest part of the Mario lot in Hacienda La Esmeralda’s Jaramillo Farm. After harvest, the coffee cherries were fermented for 6 days in a stainless steel anaerobic tank in Esmeralda's cold fermentation room. Finally, the drying phase was completed in a climate - controlled drying room for 35 days. An indoor facility with constant airflow and precise temperature and humidity control. The cold-drying stage supports a slower, more controlled finish, helping preserve florals and clarity while allowing the process-driven candied fruit character to remain integrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Hydrangea Chose This Coffee\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe chose this lot because the processing added depth without obscuring the Gesha character. The cup balances fresh florals and raspberry-like fruit with a more candied, intense aromatic layer, creating a profile that feels expressive and composed rather than simply process-forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Hydrangea Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"4oz (114g)","offer_id":54141918937410,"sku":"HLE-GESHA-NATURAL-MARIO-6ANC-4OZ","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8oz (227g)","offer_id":54141918970178,"sku":"HLE-GESHA-NATURAL-MARIO-6ANC-8OZ","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0693\/6887\/3282\/files\/Raspberry_RedandPurpleFlorals_Gamaygrapes.jpg?v=1718256474","url":"https:\/\/hydrangea.coffee\/products\/gesha-anaerobic-natural-hacienda-la-esmeralda-mario-arriba-6anc","provider":"Hydrangea Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
