Panama Elida Estate Vuelta Gesha Washed DRD
Roast Level: Light
Variety: Gesha
Process: Washed DRD
Region: Alto Quiel, Panama
Elevation: 1950 m+

Vuelta is the highest-elevation plot on the renowned Elida Estate in Boquete, Panama, where Gesha is planted at roughly 1,950 meters on the slopes bordering Barú National Park and the Barú Volcano. Once considered too high for Gesha to thrive, this site has since become a benchmark for what altitude and meticulous processing can achieve.
This Gesha was produced by the Lamastus family from Elida’s Vuelta plot and finished in the estate’s Dark Room Drying (DRD) facility, where temperature and humidity are precisely controlled. This slow, gentle drying and resting environment allows the coffee to dry evenly and develop exceptional clarity and concentration.
Fun Fact: It made history by setting a price record and earning exceptional scores at the Best of Panama.
A Gesha Natural from the Vuelta plot won 1st place with a 95.13 score and sold for $10,013 per kilogram, one of the highest prices ever achieved at the competition. A Gesha Washed from the same plot also placed in the top five with a 94.13 score, confirming Vuelta’s significance across multiple categories.
