Geisha tastings at Intelligentsia Tuesday!
Coffee geeks know that the Geisha from Hacienda La Esmeralda in Panama is one bad ass cup of coffee. So bad ass that if you are lucky enough to find it for sale, you can expect to pay upwards of $100 a pound for the beans. A single cup is over $10. If you’ve tasted it, you know it’s totally worth it. If you haven’t, well tomorrow if your lucky day! Both Intelligentsia locations (Silver Lake and Venice) will be doing a free tasting that if you like coffee, you really really don’t want to miss. Swing through Venice between 4-6pm, or Silver Lake anytime after 1pm to have a cup and talk to Devin or Chris, resident experts who can tell you all about this super rare coffee. More details on the Intelligentsia blog.

i hope i can try out intelli’s. i’ve already tried (3 half pound bags) of equator’s and it’s truly the coffee you have to taste.
yes! Thanks for the heads up!
Thank you Sean and ‘Skim’. Because of the price of the coffee, we always worry that someone will feel that it is all smoke and lights. It is music to our ears to hear that you really enjoy the taste.
