This lovely Gesha honey cup is sweet with sweet aroma. A bouquet of lychee announces its arrivals as soon as the grounds are wetted. At first sip, a sweet tropical fruit zest shines up front. As the cup cools, the notes of strawberry begin to permeate. The mouthfeel is clean, and transitions into a brisk tea-like finish.

Every Cup of Coffee Has a Story

Gesha is an old cultivar from Ethiopia that was brought to an experimental coffee garden as a specimen sample. It was distributed to a few farms for testing on small plots. Not much was thought of the cultivar until a farm in Panama entered it to a national competition. Its fruited and floral character was outrageously different, resulting in other farms separating their Gesha coffee as well, as is the case here. The results are always a bit different: the cultivar “expresses" itself differently in terms of cup flavors at each location, influenced by weather, soil, and altitude. Our Gesha is no different. It expresses the region of Tarrazu and the non-traditional processing method chosen by Luis Fernando Prado of Cerro Dragon Micro Mill.

BHB Notes

We define this Gesha with understated elegance. Its clean profile is reminiscent of a white-tie dinner party, exuding subtle sophistication. The sweet floral notes remind us of a late spring day amidst jasmine flowers. Plus, It's easy on the stomach, making it a delightful choice for anyone.

Good For: Pourover, French Press, Drip

Amazing roast, issues with delivery

Gesha roast at The Cup (a Hummingbird shop) is simply the best coffee for pour overs I've had. Since I buy a bag roughly weekly, the barista suggested buying larger quantity bag from their website and have it shipped to my house. Great idea! Save money and not have to run out for coffee? Sure! Problem is, the delivery took nearly 2 weeks and I still had to run out for another bag. Oh well, not the end of the world, but I will not use home shipping again and will opt for shop pickup.

Delicious Coffee!

This coffee is super bright and delicious when made with a v60 and Chemex. It has a very fruity flavor to it and just the right amount of acidity to make it a very flavorful and enjoyable brew.
