Variety

Gesha, also spelled Geisha, is an Arabica variety with Ethiopian origins. It is valued for high cup-quality potential and floral aromatics, especially under suitable high-elevation growing conditions. Its expression also depends on cultivation, processing, and roasting.

Processing

Semi-washed describes an approach between fully washed processing and methods that retain more fruit material. The degree of mucilage removal and the fermentation sequence vary between producers, and can affect texture and clarity.
