Hi there —
Only available at Bean Box! Proud Mary's Geisha Slow Jams blend combines washed and natural Geisha coffees from their small producer relationships in Panama and Honduras for a fruity, floral masterpiece of delicate, world-renowned flavor. Now's your chance to discover why Geisha is the most sought-after indulgence in specialty coffee (hint hint Mother's Day hint hint)!
Tastes Like: Summer Berries, Mango, Florals, Tea
Why I'm Obsessed: Geisha Slow Jams is what happens when all your favorite musicians finally get in the studio together. When our friends at Proud Mary approached me with an exclusive, limited-run blend of their best small-lot Geisha coffees, I said yes before they finished the sentence. Geisha isn't just another coffee varietal: it's a legend. Originally from Ethiopia, it rose to global fame in Panama, where its first competition appearance stunned judges and changed the course of specialty coffee forever. What makes it so coveted is its unmistakable profile: intensely floral aromatics, sparkling citrus brightness, and a soft, silky body that feels more like fine tea than traditional coffee. Grown in small quantities and notoriously difficult to cultivate, the best Geishas consistently earn sky-high scores and fetch record-breaking prices at auction.
Slow Jams is a celebration of Proud Mary's small producer relationships in Panama and Honduras. Normally you have to choose between washed and natural processing for this coffee — Slow Jams brings the best of both together. The aroma is sugary-sweet and immediately arresting. To me, it smells like florals and strawberry candy, and that candy-like sweetness carries into the first sip and beyond. I actually wrote CANDY in big letters on my notepad. Cherry, strawberry, mango, meyer lemon, a little banana even! A strong wash of tea-like florals, buttery, like hibiscus. Light body but with a round mouthfeel like Werther's hard candy. Super clean finish with a hint of black tea tannins and that classic Geisha sparkle.
Among coffee fans, Geisha is one of the most coveted coffees in the world, and an absolutely unforgettable gift. Slow Jams comes in a special, giftable 100g tin festooned with hearts and flowers — one you'll want to keep long after the coffee is gone. We only have a small number of tins, and when the music is over, well, it's over. This WILL sell out. Secure your tin today.
Bottom Line: You'll love this coffee if you love little indulgences like fruity candy, fresh-cut flowers in your kitchen, or personalized mixtapes for every occasion.
