This Ethiopia Guji SIKO is a washed coffee sourced from the Siko village. The coffee trees are relatively young and shade-grown under false banana trees and other traditional shade trees. The variety includes local landraces, Dega landrace, and 1974 JARC selections. This coffee offers a flavor profile characterized by notes of nectarine, peach, and a light hoppy and floral quality.
A pioneer of the Belgian specialty coffee scene, Caffenation was founded by Rob Berghmans in Antwerp in 2003. It started as a small roastery and bar with a mission to introduce lighter, more flavorful third wave coffee to a city accustomed to traditional dark roasts. Rob's approach is obsessive and driven by quality, focusing on sourcing transparently traded green beans of the highest grade. They are known for their trans seasonal espresso blends and a wide array of single origin filter coffees, roasted to highlight clarity, sweetness, and the unique character of each origin.
