One of the very best coffees I have ever had!!
"I have ordered the Costa Rica Black Honey Geisha a couple times now. What an amazing cup. Worth the money to spoil yourself and maybe a friend!"
Mexican El Mirador: Honey/Geisha - Cup Of Excellence Winner
This year, Gold Star Coffee became the only North American roaster to win a lot at Cup of Excellence Mexico 2026, securing Lot #6: El Mirador — an exceptionally rare, honey-processed Geisha coffee grown in the high-altitude mountains of Santa María Yucuhití, Oaxaca, Mexico by producer Heladio García España.
Scoring 88.28 from the International Jury and ranked #6 in the Traditional Honey category, this coffee proved itself nearly flawless across multiple rounds of blind tasting.
The honey-process leaves a layer of the natural coffee fruit intact on the bean as it dries, giving the cup a noticeable sweetness and smooth body, while the legendary Geisha variety contributes its signature floral aroma and light, tea-like character.
Together, they create a balanced cup of sweet fruit, floral aromas, and a clean finish. This is a fully traceable, exclusive lot — Gold Star Coffee secured the rights to every single pound of this harvest, so it isn't available from any other roaster in North America.

Truly the World's Best Coffee
"Life is too short to drink any other."
Extremely tasty!
"The coffee arrived quickly, it was freshly roasted and absolutely delicious. Feel free to visit my Instagram @armandalatte to see espresso shots using this coffee."
Best cup of coffee I never knew about
"The Honey Geisha was the most amazing first cup of coffee I’ve tasted! Smooth, no aftertaste, no jitters, just the right amount of caffeine. I drink my coffee with a splash of cream, however I could see myself drinking this black, it’s so smooth. One thing to note is that it was much better as coffee than as an americano option."
I love it
"The best coffee ever ☕"
Great coffee
"Great coffee, but the price keeps me from buying too much. I am sure it is inline with costs of production though because all the other prices on the site are very good (sorry VP Harris, no price-gouging here:)"
Delicious!!!!
"This coffee is delicious. I don’t know why I waited so long to try it. The ordering process was fast and easy and the beans perfectly roasted. I will definitely buy this again and recommend to all my friends and family."
Costa Rica Coffee
"Costa Rica Coffee is fine"
Just begin buying whole beans, best so far
"Just started buying whole beans for two months. The honey geisha is the best one even better than the Jamaica Blue Mountain."
