DETAILS

  • Producer: Adam Overton
  • Farm: Gesha Village, Oma Block
  • Region: Bench Maji, Ethiopia
  • Varietal: Geisha 1931
  • Process: Natural
  • Lot: Oma #142
  • Roast Profile: Light

INTRO
From the Oma block within the Gesha Village farm in Bench Maji, a natural-processed expression of the historic Geisha 1931 lineage. In the cup: candied lemon, jasmine, and honey.

THE PRODUCER
Gesha Village is Adam Overton's farm in the Bench Maji zone of southwestern Ethiopia, growing the Geisha 1931 variety, named for the Gesha forest area where the original seed was collected. This lot comes from the Oma block, one of several distinct plots across the farm.

THE PROCESS
This lot is a Natural: the whole cherry is dried intact, with the skin, pulp, and mucilage left on, so the fruit's sugars and aromas pass into the seed. No further steps are given in the source.

THE CUP
Sweet and floral: candied lemon and jasmine, with a honey sweetness.

Flavour Notes
🍋 Candied Lemon 🌸 Jasmine 🍯 Honey

About this variety

Coffees reported as Gesha or Geisha are often prized for a delicate, tea-like cup with lifted floral aromas and bright fruit. Jasmine, bergamot and peach are common reference points, but each lot can express them differently.

Why this one is different
  • Ethiopia
  • Bench Maji
  • Natural

In Ethiopia, Gesha can refer to landrace material associated with the wider Gesha area. It should not automatically be treated as Panama’s T2722 selection.

Natural processing often brings a rounder, fruit-led expression, which can make the same variety feel quite different from a washed lot.

Why the Gesha / Geisha name matters

Gesha and Geisha are interchangeable spellings, not proof of different varieties. The best-documented Panamanian Geisha descends from Ethiopian material recorded as T2722, while other coffees carrying either spelling may not be genetically identical.

Classification Reported Gesha / Geisha

Technical lineage The reported name alone does not establish one genetic lineage. Confirmed Panamanian T2722 traces to Ethiopian landrace material.

Variety is a guide, not a flavour guarantee. Lot notes are more specific.
