Ok Cool kids. You don’t process over 100 lots without getting to about the halfway point without getting better at this. This one is alive with those florals, bergamot, honey blossom, with some vibrant blood orange with spices running through the acidity. Ethiopian Natural processing has really come a long way.

Gesha Village. The Birthplace of Gesha. Once again we are excited to welcome these coffees into our portfolio. Gesha Village is an excellent project that merges the best of Ethiopian central washing station practices, with expert estate management and traceability.
Gesha Village in 2020 has been busy perfecting traditional coffee processing like Natural, Honey, and Washed. But they have also been playing with Carbonic Fermentation al la Beaujolais. This year we have secured their natural lots, as well as the carbonic macerated lots. We have received a mixture of 1931 Gesha, Gori Gesha and Illubabor Forest.
The flavour was really unique; it was like other washed Ethiopians I’ve had in many ways but just more nuanced. Too expensive for your morning cup, and to share with friends.. but it’s ideal to treat yourself!
