Ninety Plus 90+ is not a conventional cupping score rating name, but rather the name of a company plus a coffee bean series. Since 2004, when Hacienda La Esmeralda's Gesha green beans won the Best of Panama (BOP) competition, Gesha swept all competitions, allowing coffee enthusiasts worldwide to discover Gesha, know Gesha, and fall in love with Gesha—and Joseph Brodsky was one of them.



After founding the company, 90+ initially only selected high-quality coffee cherries and started with processing methods, meticulously processing the harvested cherries. Thus, 90+'s signature beans Aricha and Beloya were born. The results of these experiments were already astonishing and shocked the entire coffee industry at the time.
