Coffee from Rachel's and Adam's farm in the jungle of western Ethiopia has found its way to the world stage numerous times, and for good reason. It is considered a \"bucket list\" coffee offering for many roasters around the world. And we here at Black \u0026amp; White have had the tremendous privilege of roasting coffee from Gesha Village Estate on numerous occasions, both for world barista competitors AND for all of you at home - and we do not take that privilege lightly.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMEET THE PRODUCERS |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMost of you probably already know their story, but a short synopsis still bears repeating here: the Gesha Village project started as an effort by Rachel Samuel and Adam Overton to document native, wild coffee species growing in the Gori Gesha Forest in the Bench Maji zone, where the Gesha variety originated. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eFast forward eight years, and the couple found themselves searching for the perfect piece of land on which to build the coffee farm of their dreams. They found that dream realized not far from that renown Gori Gesha forest they first visited in 2007. Today, the estate has grown to over 700,000 coffee trees and 30,000 native shade trees. With the partnership of the local Meanit Shasha Woreda people, the Gesha Village project has returned the value surrounding the name, \"Gesha\" back to the forests where the coffee first descended.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis naturally processed coffee first underwent rigorous hand-sorting to ensure that only the ripest, highest quality cherries remained. Then, the whole cherries were placed on raised beds to dry in the sun until they reached 11% moisture content after 27 days. During this time, the cherries were consistently turned to ensure even drying. Everything is pretty standard operating procedure here, but it's executed, well, perfectly. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP | \u003c\/strong\u003eUnlike some Gesha varieties, this Gori Gesha lot presents with softer, more subtle floral notes and bigger fruit flavors. Mango, pomegranate, and strawberry can all be perceived in the cup. Combined with a limeade-like citrus component, those big fruit flavors remind us of strawberry lemonade. A sweetness like manuka honey lingers on the palette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e___________________________________________________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBench Maji Zone, Gesha, Ethiopia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducers |\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAdam Overton, Rachel Samuel, and Willem Boot | Gesha Village\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFarm |\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eGesha Village\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess |\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety |\u003c\/strong\u003e Gori Gesha\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElevation |\u003c\/strong\u003e 1909-2063 masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"12oz","offer_id":47522587476281,"sku":"","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":47522587509049,"sku":"","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":47522587541817,"sku":"","price":221.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2988\/2574\/files\/GeshaVillageLot13_online_4x-100.jpg?v=1700665922","url":"https:\/\/www.blackwhiteroasters.mom\/products\/r-gesha-village-gori-gesha-lot-13","provider":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
