Guji is very mountainous and densely forested, the soil is rich and the potential there
for coffee is spectacular, all of these elements come together to make it one of the
most exceptional coffee growing regions in the world. It would be a mistake to think
Guji’s reputation is purely down to environmental niche. People have been growing
coffee here for a long time and the farmers here are very skilled and knowledgeable.
Cultivation has been happening here for the last 100 years or so but before that coffee
grew wild in the Guji forest and was harvested and more informally farmed for 500
years, possibly longer! So coffee is a hugely important part of the culture here and
there is a lot of passed down knowledge and skill. People take good care of their
farms and the soil is very rich for coffee growing, leading to very healthy plants and good fruit. When it comes to harvesting the picking is very skilled, people take a lot of
pride in their coffee and only pick the good ripe cherries.
