What kind of Rosa Coffee Bean in Rosa Village? how much is the price of Rosa Coffee Bean in Rose Xia Village

When it comes to rose coffee, many people's first reaction may be Panama rose coffee with rich white flowers, attractive juicy and honey sweet. Familiar with the history of rose coffee varieties until now, the default rose summer coffee variety was discovered from the rose summer forest of Ethiopia in the 1930s and went to the Central American Institute of Agriculture (CATIE) in Costa Rica in the 1950s and 1960s and was numbered T2722. It was distributed to Panama in the 1970s and became famous in 2004 for winning the Panamanian Best Competition (BOP) and breaking the auction price of raw coffee beans.

Although modern scientific instruments have come to the conclusion that there is little genetic link between the Panamanian and Ethiopian varieties, we should not just give up tasting and compare the differences between the two. After all, rain and dew are very important.

As one of the top estates in Ethiopia to return to the top ranks of coffee in the world, Roxia Village has always been a must-miss boutique coffee in Qianjie. With absolute popularity, the owner's love and dedication to coffee has always been the guarantee of coffee quality. The Rosa Variety is planted in Rosa Village, which is the birthplace of the top Panamanian Rosa varieties. The excellent planting conditions and post-treatment make the coffee in Rosa Village very expensive but there is no shortage of suitors. Both sun and water washing have light floral and fruity aromas and smooth taste, while Qianjie pursues coffee beans with characteristics and background stories, and the coffee produced by this Rose Xia Village manor meets our requirements. What I want to share today is the cost-effective red mark of Rose Xia Village.

Ruoxia Village

In 2007, documentary director Adam Overton and photographer wife Rachel Samuel came into contact with the Gera Coffee Forest in the Bench-Maji region of Ethiopia while filming a documentary about Ethiopian coffee for the Ethiopian government. In the process, they were not only reacquainted with the great land of Ethiopia, but also came up with the idea of setting up their own coffee estate and brand.

In 2009, they were lucky enough to meet the famous mule owner, BOP judge Willem Boot, and Willem Boot's idea provided an opportunity for the Overton couple to return to Ethiopia to find the birthplace of Rosa Xia. Finally they came to Banchi Magi, an area in southwestern Ethiopia near South Sudan, where many places are known as the village of Gesha and where primitive roses are most likely to be found. When they arrived in 2011, there was nothing in the manor.

Adam followed Willem Boot on an expedition in the forest around the manor, where he discovered a variety of wild tree species in a jungle magically surrounded by a dense forest. Later they learned that this was the place where the rose species were first found in the Gori Geisha forest. So they collected seeds from native rose trees, screened them, and planted them in Rosa Village. They decided to build the estate here and name it Geisha Village Coffee Estate, a 475-hectare coffee farm about 12 miles from the Gori Gesha Forest.

The village of Geisha Village Coffee Estate is completely different from most Ethiopian farms in that it is not a small farm, but a large farm of 500ha, with its own washing plant and laboratory, located in the southwest near the border with Sudan, and the most special is that the whole farm only grows Rosa varieties, rather than Ethiopian native species that generally cannot be determined. Ruoxia Village divides the farm into eight blocks, with three main Rosa varieties, whose seeds are collected from nearby forests.

The construction of the farm began in October 2011 and the first harvest in 2015. Due to the enthusiastic response from all parties, they, with the assistance of Panamanian coffee farmer Willem Boot, offered 21 micro-batches in the first international bid held on May 31, 2017, of which 19 were 120kg and the others were smaller. Bidders from Europe, North America, Asia and Australia responded unexpectedly enthusiastically, and the final bid price was $85 / lb, breaking all previous auction prices for African beans!
