Las Margaritas - LOST ORIGIN

Founded as a hub for boundary-pushing experimentation, Lost Origin Coffee Lab was born from a passion to redefine the sensory limits of specialty coffee. Driven by a vision to merge microbiology with agriculture, the lab treats coffee processing as a playground for clean, radical innovation.

Instead of relying on traditional methods, they immerse micro-lots in sterile, state-of-the-art bioreactors, testing unique yeast strains and custom fermentation curves. Their mission is to unlock rare, hidden flavor compounds while ensuring absolute consistency. For Lost Origin, every batch is a scientific canvas designed to challenge the status quo, creating intensely saturated, competition-level coffees for the most demanding palates.

About the process

WHAT IS A Depulped PROCESS?

It belongs to the Experimental coffee processes.

This advanced method involves depulping the ripe coffee cherries to remove the outer skin before sealing the parchment and remaining mucilage inside oxygen-free environments. By removing oxygen and strictly controlling external variables, specific beneficial microbes drive an incredibly precise fermentation. This technique intensely heightens clean floral aromas, refines complex organic acids, and guarantees supreme structural clarity in the final cup.

IN THIS COFFEE:

Highly advanced bio-precision protocol featuring an ultra-extended 13.1-day anaerobic fermentation inside custom-built stainless steel tanks, strictly guided by LOY-011P and LOY-006P microbial inoculations at a controlled average temperature of 8.5°C, followed by a meticulous 20.4-day dehydration cycle in climate-regulated drying rooms.

ABOUT THE VARIETAL

GENERAL INFORMATION:

  • NAME: Geisha
  • MOTHER SPECIES: Arabica
  • RIPE CHERRY COLOUR: Red

TYPICAL CUP PROFILE:

The Geisha variety is globally celebrated for its extraordinarily sweet, complex, and tea-like cup profile. It is intensely aromatic, featuring dominant floral notes of jasmine, orange blossom, and orchid, beautifully complemented by bright, sparkling citrus flavors such as bergamot, lemongrass, and tangerine. With a delicate, elegant body, a refined malic acidity, and distinct undertones of stone fruits and white peach, it leaves a long, clean, and honey-like sweetness on the finish.

GENETIC ORIGIN & HISTORY:

Geisha is an ancestral wild variety that originates from the southwestern mountains of Ethiopia, specifically near the town of Gesha. In the 1930s, seeds were collected and brought to Kenya and Tanzania, eventually making their way to Latin America (Costa Rica) in the 1950s due to its tolerance to certain coffee diseases. However, its true legendary status was achieved in 2004 in Boquete, Panama, when Hacienda La Esmeralda isolated the variety, noticed its mind-blowing floral profile at high altitudes, and entered it into the "Best of Panama" auction. It shattered all price records, completely revolutionizing the modern specialty coffee industry.
