This coffee is sourced from the Abana Estate in the Limu region of Ethiopia, grown at an altitude of 2100 meters. It is an Heirloom variety processed using a unique method involving a 24-hour cherry rest followed by a 24-hour water fermentation and a final wash. This process is designed to enhance clarity and acidity. The flavor profile features notes of red fruit and starfruit.
Lineage Coffee Roasting was founded in January 2012 by Jarrett and Justine Johnson in Orlando, Florida. The couple started with a retrofitted grill and an ice cream motor powering a 3 kilogram roaster, and within months had upgraded and begun building a reputation for meticulous small lot roasting. By 2015 they were traveling to Guatemala and Colombia to establish direct trade relationships, later expanding those connections into Kenya and Ethiopia. Today Lineage operates three café locations across Orlando, cups and dials in every coffee served, and runs a wholesale program alongside a roasting academy. The hands on approach that began with a homemade setup continues to define the company's identity more than a decade later.
