Gesha Beans
Current Coffee
La Reforma Washed Gesha, Colombia
A delicate, composed cup with sweetness and jam-like acidity, paired with a silky texture and light botanical aromatics.
As a roastery, we place real value on the relationships we’ve built with producers and the importers who work alongside them. This particular Gesha was sourced through Osito, a Colombian importer founded in 2018. Businesses like Osito often form the essential link between a farm and the wider roasting community, helping coffees move from remote growing regions roasteries in a way that is both transparent and reliable. Their role extends well beyond logistics. An importer spends time with producers, gaining an understanding of their approach, their challenges, and the character of the coffees they cultivate. They then share this story with roasteries, giving each coffee the context it deserves.
For many producers, this visibility is crucial. Even the most distinctive coffee can struggle to reach the right audience without someone to advocate for it. Importers help ensure that a producer’s work is recognised, and that their coffee reaches roasters who value its qualities. For us, partnerships with importers offer access to a wider range of coffees, greater consistency, and the financial structures that make long-term sourcing possible.
