Price not usable
Every price we hold for this coffee works out far outside the believable per kilo range for its own market, or repeats unchanged across different bag sizes, so we will not put a figure to it.

No roaster can pay to change a figure or the order of a list; any paid placement is labelled Sponsored.
What Friedhats says about this coffee
Gesha as a variety is easy now to associate with Colombia, with Panama - these countries are producing some of the most complex, beautiful Geshas that are taking over the championships and highlighting just how impressive a coffee can be.
The true origin of the Gesha however, is Ethiopia. The Gesha Village project was dedicated to returning the Gesha variety to its glory in Ethiopia and reviving production of the worlds best coffee. The Gesha Village Coffee Estate is a 471-hectare farm sitting at 1930 - 2040 masl that has been built from the ground up for 11 years; harvesting prized stock from the Gori Gesha forest, and bringing it to the Gesha Village Estate, then cultivating the highest quality crops has been their mission.
This year’s Gesha Village auction was one of extremely high standards, and we’re happy to be able to present these two coffees from their offering. We hope you like them too.
This natural Gesha 1931 varietal underwent a 60-hour semi-anaerobic process, giving it a creamy body with lots of tropical fruit notes, such as guava and papaya.

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
How it sits among coffee from Ethiopia
Friedhats describe this coffee as fruity. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ethiopia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Ethiopia, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
