Graciano Cruz is something of an enigma. A scientist, coffee producer, party animal, visionary, and ecologist. It's impossible to succinctly describe him - there aren't enough words. He's a wild man – and we think he's awesome! In addition to his two farms in Panama, Graciano also operates in El Salvador and works on projects in Ethiopia, Peru, Taiwan, and Brazil. The highest sections of Los Lajones sit at a staggering 2,100 metres above sea level, and it’s on these upper sections that Graciano's Geisha grows amongst the wild native cloudy rainforest.  

Prior to the 2024 harvest, Graciano had exclusively processed his coffees using the honey or natural methods. But, this year, he decided to try something he’d never done before – to process some of his coffees using the washed method. We couldn’t be more excited to present the first ever washed geisha from Los Lajones. This coffee is reminiscent of a classic Washed Panamanian Geisha, packed with floral and citrus notes – but also some of those funky tropical notes that we love from Graciano’s coffees.
