Producer overview
The coffee produced by Jamison Savage, Saša Šestić, and Elvin Siew originates from the Chiriqui Highlands in the Volcán region of Panama. These lots are cultivated at high elevations, ranging from 1850 to 2300 meters above sea level.
The production is focused exclusively on the Geisha varietal. This focus on a single cultivar defines the scope of their output within the current catalog.
The processing portfolio demonstrates a strong emphasis on experimental techniques alongside traditional methods. The catalog includes lots treated with carbonic maceration, carbonic maceration washed, natural, and washed processes.
Their work is represented by two roasters in the current index, with seven total lots recorded. Recent catalog examples include the Iris Estate Vivid Gesha processed via carbonic maceration for Black and White Coffee Roasters, as well as the Iris Estate Terroir Espresso, which is a washed Geisha offered by Ona Coffee. Other recent entries from Ona Coffee include the natural-processed Iris Estate Afterglow and the carbonic maceration washed Iris Estate Aril.
The collaboration is distinguished by its consistent focus on the Geisha varietal paired with a diverse range of post-harvest processing techniques.
