About Gesha Village of Ethiopia
Gesha Village is one of the most cherished coffee producers on the planet. Nearby is the town of Gesha and the Gori Gesha Forest, the birthplace of the Gesha variety. This lot comes from the Gaylee block, which is named after the southeast-facing neighbourhood nearby to the farm, where Gesha Villages water source comes from. The area is exclusively planted with Illubabor Forest, a variety that was discovered in the nearby areas and is taken directly to dry for 28 days in raised beds under the sun and mixed shade.

Junto Coffee
The dream of long-time coffee professional, Alex Medina, Junto opened its doors in February of 2019. We’re a minority owned company that focuses on both providing intentionally sourced, exceptional products and working with importers and exporters that pay producers a premium for their coffees.
Our founder’s experience in coffee importing has compounded our understanding of the importance of building long-term relationships with producers to guarantee our continued support and ambassadorship of their coffee. Our goal is to cultivate both existing relationships and build new ones with regions that are underrepresented because we know how important it is for all producers to be able to sell their coffees.
Junto was founded with the belief that coffee has the unique ability to bind folx of vastly different origins and creeds. We are driven to honor that by roasting to highlight the inherent qualities of each remarkable coffee and continually creating space for shared experiences and common purpose.
