Datura - Gesha Village Lot 26/126 Oma Washed

Located in the Bench Maji region of Ethiopia, Gesha Village is one of the most renowned coffee estates in the world and plays a vital role in preserving the origins of the Gesha variety.The project began in 2007, when Rachel Samuel and Adam Overton were studying Ethiopia's coffee heritage and exploring the forests around Gori Gesha. Fascinated by the exceptional genetic diversity of these wild coffees, they later established Gesha Village on land selected for its altitude, favorable climate, fertile soils, and natural coffee ecosystem.All the coffees from Gesha Village come from the Gesha 1931 selection, originating from wild coffee populations collected near the Gori Gesha forest, closely related to the material gathered during the historic 1931 expedition that led to the famous Panamanian Gesha.Carefully sorted and floated before pulping, the cherries undergo a dry fermentation for 12 to 18 hours. After washing, the coffee is slowly shade-dried for 12 to 15 days in very thin layers. Once it reaches 11% moisture content, it rests for at least 2 months prior to milling.
