This coffee specifically is an heirloom variety, with an incredible profile. Often we place emphasis on variety and processing as the main indicators of quality, but with this Natural Heirloom, we see what can happen when terroir and proper cultivation coalesce.
We taste notes of Orange, Fig, and Chocolate.

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.
