The landowner, Adam Overton, is an out-and-out American who works as a documentary director, while his wife, Rachel Samuel, is an Ethiopian and a photographer. The two were commissioned to shoot a documentary about coffee in Ethiopia in 2007. with the filming process and more and more in-depth contact with Ethiopian land and people, their dream of building their own estate sprouted. All this has made a breakthrough after the two met William Bout, even the site selection of the manor, the selection and treatment of varieties, etc., all have a lot to do with William Bout. So far, William Bout still leads a delegation to visit every year and will stay at the manor for the post-processing of the coffee.

In Guoxia Village Manor, a total of three varieties are planted. The first variety is Gori Gesha, which is collected from Gori primeval forest, accounting for 43.7% of the manor's acreage. The second variety is Illubabor from Illubabor Forest, which accounts for about 20% of the manor acreage. The last variety is the well-known Rosa 1931 (Gesha 1931), which is closest to the current Panamanian variety in planting pattern and flavor, accounting for about 37.3% of the manor's acreage.

During the 2018 production season, the Rose Xia Village Manor adopted a new grading system, dividing all batches into four internal grades, with a view to further quality control.

1. The highest level is the competitive bidding lot (Auction), which accounts for only 3.7% of the manor's annual output. We re-organized the touring cup test sharing meeting in Taiwan with the owner Rachel Samuel and consultant Willem Boot in 2018. The bidding ended in June, and the bid fee for the highest batch set a record of US $105 per pound.

two。 The second level is the Gold Standard batch (Rarity Label), which is also the batch we arrived in Taiwan by air. The gold bid batch accounts for only 5% of the manor's production, which can almost be said to be at the same level as the bidding batch. In view of the differences in taste between the East and the West and the independent personality of beans in the ripening process, the performance of Gold Standard batches often makes the editor feel that it is beyond the bidding batches. It is not only a treasure trove of treasure digging, but also a favorite choice for national contestants to compete. At the WBC World Championship held in the Netherlands in 2018, the Australian and Japanese champions selected Golden Standard batches to participate in the competition.
