This coffee comes from the Reko mountain in the Kochere district of Yirgacheffe at high altitude. The washed coffee is hand-picked at peak ripeness, processed through rinsing and floating to remove defects, milled, and sun-dried to 10-11% moisture. The cup features elegant floral notes with honeysuckle, orange blossom, and white grape characteristics.
PERC Coffee was founded in 2010 by Philip Brown in Savannah, Georgia, beginning with a Diedrich IR 12 roaster sourced from eBay and initial deliveries made by bike and backpack. The roastery operates from a restored warehouse alongside an organic community garden, embedding sustainability into both coffee sourcing and physical space. Brown sources colorful coffees from various origins, prioritizing long term producer relationships that allow consistency and trust building. The roasting philosophy centers on small batch profiles crafted to maximize sweetness and varietal character, while monthly free public cupping sessions invite the community into the sensory experience of specialty coffee.
