Gesha Village is internationally renowned, for good reason - the coffee they produce is consistently world-class. The estate is a 471-hectare coffee farm, built by Rachel Samuel, Adam Overton and Willem Boot, in Bench Maji, Ethiopia. Over 8 different blocks, each with their own characteristics, they produce 3 different varieties, Gori Gesha, Illubabor Forest and Gesha 1931. This lot was selected from the top tier of the Gesha Village offering outside of auction. It was was grown in the 67.6 hectare Oma block and is a Gesha 1931. It has undergone a 'Special Fermentation'. This is a semi-anaerobic natural process where freshly picked cherries are fermented for 109 hours in a sub-terrain concrete tank before drying and processed as a traditional natural, which adds a layer of complexity to the final cup.
