The Story
Nido is Spanish for nest. The plots sit inside forest that quetzals have nested in for as long as the family has farmed there, and the name comes from the birds. The Peterson family introduced Panama Geisha to the world at Best of Panama in 2004. In 2025 they won first place in all three categories, washed Geisha, natural Geisha and varietals, and this washed lot scored 98, the highest the competition has recorded.
Nido 7 is the lot name Hacienda La Esmeralda gave this washed Geisha. The cherries were picked by hand, washed and dried slowly, which keeps the lot's own character ahead of the process. We sat with the team at the farm again this July and tasted the newest harvest where it grew.
At the 2025 Best of Panama auction we bought the lot, GW-01, at US$30,204 a kilo, a record for a washed Geisha. It came home to Dubai, and this is it.
