Established only in 2019, this farm and the Gesha region of Ethiopia is a less popular region among most green coffee buyers, especially when compared to the uber popular Yirgacheffe and Guji regions. The varieties that grow here are another story. The Gesha 1931 variety is acclaimed worldwide as one of the highest cup quality varieties available, and it’s sibling, the Gori Gesha variety rivals it in quality, and is one of the oldest known coffee varieties. This variety has origins in the Gori gesha Forest which is about a 20 minutes away from the farm at this lot comes from. 

This is a farm owned and operated by our export partner, so the ability to closely manage picking and processing techniques lends itself to what we find in the cup, more on that later. This farm processes any and all types of coffee, from anaerobic and carbonic maceration, to this traditional natural. This unique lot went through carbonic maceration in a barrel for 96 hours before being taken to raised beds where it dried for 16 days to reach ideal moisture content. The Gesha region is a bit warmer than a region like Sidama, and because of that it is very easy for them to dry naturals here, compared to the Bensa region seeing extended times required for drying, slowing down some shipments this year. Because of this, naturals like this one are very clean in the cup, with more florals and citric notes.

Roasting coffee was originally an escape fantasy/retirement dream for owner Sam LaRobardiere, until roasting equipment and some green coffee basically fell into his lap. Then as a hobby roaster, he began selling at a pop-up for community events and artisan markets, and in 2018 took the leap to open both a roastery and coffee shop. 

Over the years, the folks at Theory Coffee Roasters have honed their coffee skills and built strong coffee-sourcing relationships. Along the way, they have had some fun achievements. While Theory is motivated by the great accomplishments of the past, we continue to be even more excited about the future. Our commitment is to continue to bring our beloved customers even more award-winning coffees that are roasted to display the optimal balance of each coffee's best attributes. You can buy with confidence that Theory will deliver the best coffees in the world...right to your doorstep.
