Strawberry, Pineapple, and Violet. Velvety and Delicate. Our coffee team has called this coffee the gold standard for Ethiopian Geshas. If you only ever try one, make it this one.

Ethiopia Gesha Village Narsha Natural comes from the Gesha Village Coffee Estate, located near the storied Gori Gesha forest where the varietal was first catalogued in 1931. Here, only perfectly ripe cherries are meticulously harvested by hand and then sun-dried. The result of this careful harvesting is a natural processed coffee that is bright, clear, and retains all of the distinct characteristics of the Gesha varietal that we love.

Find it available on our website today: https://www.intelligentsia.com/products/ethiopia-gesha-village-1931-natural

Today we're bringing back an Intelligentsia mainstay, first introduced over 20 years ago.

La Tortuga debuted in 2004, sourced from legendary Honduran producer Don Fabio. Like the tortoise in the classic fable, Honduras was still emerging on the specialty coffee stage at the time, steadily building recognition alongside its Central American neighbors.

Today, Honduras is firmly established among the world's great coffee origins. Don Fabio's daughter, Marysabel Caballero, and her husband, Moises Herrera, continue building on the foundation laid by generations before them, carrying the family's work forward.

Some coffees we only serve one way. We set aside a rotating selection of single origins to be brewed exclusively via pourover in our coffeebars. Made with care, one cup at a time, it lets us dial in each coffee for its sweetest, clearest expression. See what's rotating through on your next visit.

A toast to the cities that shaped us.

Chicago is where we started, and Los Angeles is where we first grew beyond it. Both cities have influenced how we think about coffee, hospitality, and what it means to show up for a neighborhood.
