From the roaster

Hey. This is mega limited in two major ways. One the amount we have but two also in the amount that was made. These "off" major origins producing these types of coffees or different processes are hit or miss but at the same time kind of cool to show you the world of coffee isn't just Ethiopia and Colombia. 

It's a Gesha. Yes. But it's not overly so. It's floral and does the jasmine thing but really really slightly. It does the tea like thing very well as one would hope and expect as well as a solid amount of sweetness. For an "indonesian" coffee it's not - and that's cool. That said it was expensive to buy because it is after all a Gesha. I'm keeping it at 10oz and even a bit lower in cost for a gesha just for those who want to experience this.

We have like 6 bags I think set aside for one so if you see it in stock - know it wont be.
