You should expect lots of delicate florals and positive tea-like characteristics with a medium-high acidity. Due to the delicate nature of this coffee, I would pay special attention to avoiding over-extraction, especially since gesha coffees can have a tendency to brew slowly. The extra 1 gram up-dose should give you enough flavor/body to offset a coarser grind.

Being a naturally processed coffee, make sure your dial emphasizes the full body of this coffee as well as its strawberry candy and tropical fruit notes.
