About This Coffee

This coffee is sourced from the Banko Gotiti Kebele in the Yirgacheffe Zone of Ethiopia. Grown by smallholder cooperative members at altitudes between 2000 and 2350 meters, the beans are a mix of Dega, Wolisho, Kurume, and JARC 74110 varieties. The coffee is processed using a washed method, involving handpicking, pulping, a 48-hour soak, and 18 to 21 days of drying on African beds. It offers a sweet and floral flavor profile with notes of pomelo, bergamot, and ripened peach, finishing with a tangy and spritely character.

Nylon Coffee Roasters

Nylon Coffee Roasters was founded in 2010 by husband and wife Dennis Tang and Jia Min Lee, who named the venture after New York and London, the two cities where they had built previous careers in IT and banking. The micro roastery opened its doors in May 2012 at Everton Park, a quiet public housing estate that has since become a pilgrimage spot for Singapore's specialty coffee community. Dennis and Jia Min roast on a Probat UG15 visible through glass in a room they call The Maillard Project, and serve coffee on a restored two group La Marzocco GS/2 that was found in Seattle and refurbished in Hong Kong. A member of 1% for the Planet and World Coffee Research, Nylon signed the Transparency Pledge in 2022 and sources beans seasonally, stocking only what is fresh and in harvest.
