Farm Story
In the far western reaches of Ethiopia, mere kilometers from the South Sudanese border, lie the dense, wildly sprouting jungles of Bench Maji zone. It’s a place of stunning natural beauty, wherefrom a high-extending plateau one can take in the expanse of the ancient, sprawling forest. This breathtaking landscape is home to Gesha Village Coffee Estate, the 471-hectare coffee farm we have built from the ground up over the last six years. This has been our labor of love, and we’re extremely proud to be producing coffees as awe-inspiring as our surroundings.
Sincerely Adam Overton, Rachel Samuel and Willem Boot.

- Sun drying on African beds for 18-20 days under shaded conditions (Mesh covered beds)
- Coffee parchment is constantly moved.
- Coffee is dried down to 10.5 %.
