When it comes to Rose Summer Village Gesha Village, a popular raw bean brand in recent years, let's start with their founder, Overton and his wife. 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 we 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 Gesha 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 Gesha Village Coffee Estate, a 475-hectare coffee farm about 12 miles from the Gori Gesha Forest.

Ruoxia Village, with a total area of 475 hectares, has gradually expanded its planting area from 2011 to 2017, with a planting area of about 320 hectares.

The species of Geisha was discovered in the rose forests of Ethiopia in 1931 and sent to the Coffee Institute in Kenya; it was introduced to Uganda and Tanzania in 1936

Introduced by Costa Rica in 1953. Panama is made up of Francesca of Dongba Seven Agricultural Garden in the 1970 s. Mr. Serraxin got the seeds from CATIE in Costa Rica and started growing Rosa Coffee, which is hard to come by because of its low production and bidding. Not many people have paid attention to Rose Summer all the time. Until one day, Don Pachi was originally brought to Costa Rica from the town of GESHA in southwestern Ethiopia, and then Rosa entered Panama along the southern route, where Esmerada Manor in Panama separated it from other varieties and won the national coffee competition. Only in this way can Rose Summer officially enter everyone's line of sight.
