Some coffees are memorable. A few are remarkable. But only one has come to define the pinnacle of quality in the specialty world: Gesha. Revered for its elegance and rarity, Gesha is a variety that reshaped what coffee can be. Its vibrant florals, layered fruits, and refined sweetness create an experience that feels less like a daily ritual, and more like a moment of discovery. This September, we celebrate Gesha not simply as a coffee, but as a benchmark of craftsmanship and the pursuit of excellence.
Born in Ethiopia and brought to fame in Panama, Gesha has since found a home in select regions of Central and South America. But its reputation is not simply about geography. Gesha is notoriously difficult to grow, requiring the perfect terroir, generations of farming knowledge, and meticulous processing.
Each cup is a testament to both the land and the dedication of the producers we’ve built personal, long-standing relationships with—farmers we visit every year to source the coffees we bring to you.
For those who have never tried Gesha, the first sip is often transformative. It doesn’t just taste like coffee as you’ve known it. Instead, it opens into something new: an aromatic bouquet of florals, layered fruits, and a refined sweetness that lingers. It is an experience of clarity and complexity few other coffees can achieve.
In competitive barista championships worldwide, Gesha is the coffee that consistently secures titles. On the cupping table, it commands some of the highest scores ever given. And yet, unlike the worlds of fine wine or rare whiskey, Gesha remains relatively accessible. For the price of a simple glass of house red, you can enjoy one of the best coffees in the world.
Choosing Gesha is choosing to step beyond the ordinary and to redefine for yourself what coffee can be.
Throughout Gesha Month, we’re bringing you opportunities to experience this celebrated variety in new and exciting ways:

Each offering is designed to connect you not only with the coffee itself, but with the people and places behind it.
Gesha is not about exclusivity for its own sake. It’s about craftsmanship, heritage, and the pursuit of excellence. When you drink Gesha, you’re joining our producers in pushing the boundaries of what coffee can be. You’re stepping into the “new high end”—a movement that expands the definition of specialty coffee itself.
At Corvus, we don’t just offer Gesha once a year—we curate one of the largest rotating selections of Gesha in the world. Each season brings fresh harvests, allowing you to explore Geshas from different continents, regions, and producers. Every lot is a unique expression: the farmer’s signature, the soil’s voice, the processing method’s artistry.
Like following a winemaker’s craft year after year, visiting us regularly means you’ll never experience Gesha the same way twice. Every visit becomes a chance to discover a new side of the world’s most extraordinary coffee.
This Gesha Month, we invite you to celebrate coffee’s crown jewel with us the entire month of September. Whether through a pour over flight, an exclusive tasting set, or a simple cup shared in our cafés, each experience is a step deeper into the pursuit of mastery and the art of craft coffee at its finest.
