About The Hub Coffee Roasters:
About Gesha Village:
Adam Overton and Rachel Samuel had only one mission: bringing the Gesha coffee home. Together with the Meanit tribe - the local inhabitants and protectors of the Gesha forest - they produce several Gesha varieties to keep the rich biodiversity of the forest intact.
Adam and Rachel keep a moderate planting density of 2000 trees per hectare. they also replanted deforested land with 30.000 shade trees to protect the coffee plants. This way, the cherries have more time to ripen which stimulates the development of the unique Gesha flavour.
Nowadays their ‘Gesha Village’ coffee is known worldwide. They have amazing cup profiles, the lots are auctioned off yearly at record prices.
The selection for this disease-resistant variety was made from an expedition to the Illubabor coffee forest in 1974.
These special micro-lots, accounting for 15 percent of the production, exhibit superior flavor attributes and excellent cup quality, scoring 88 points or above on the SCA’s 100-point scale.
