Why we like it: It belongs to the exclusive Gesha Village Rarities category (only 10% of production), featuring a refined and highly floral anaerobic natural Gesha 1931.

Who should buy it: Ideal for those looking for a top-tier, complex, and floral Gesha with notes of soft fruit and citrus — a super exclusive lot.

Gesha Village is internationally recognized, and for good reason: the coffee they produce is consistently world-class. The farm is a 471-hectare coffee plantation established by Rachel Samuel, Adam Overton, and Willem Boot in Bench Maji, Ethiopia. Across 8 different blocks, each with its own characteristics, they produce 3 distinct varieties: Gori Gesha, Illubabor Forest, and Gesha 1931.
This lot, 26/E-26, is a Gesha 1931 grown in the Surma block and is part of the Gesha Village Rarities category, which accounts for approximately 10% of their production. It has undergone an anaerobic fermentation process, which, for us, results in a cup that represents everything we love about Gesha Village coffee: you will experience a complex and refined flavor profile, with soft fruit, citrus, and strong floral notes.

In the cup, we find notes of peach, jasmine, and mandarin.
