About the history of Gesha: Originally discovered in the forests of Gesha village in Ethiopia in the 1930s, the seeds found their way to Panama in the 1950s. An auction by the Peterson family of Hacienda Esmeralda brought to market a small quantity of the Gesha, which has enchanted the specialty coffee scene with its incomparable floral and fruity notes.
