This single-origin coffee is a washed Yirgacheffe from the Danche washing station in Gedeb, Ethiopia. Produced by Habtamu Fekadu Aga, it is grown at an elevation of 1900-2200 meters. The coffee features a light roast profile with a complex flavor profile characterized by notes of Palisade peach, ripe pluot, and sweet, drippy melon, complemented by floral aromas of lavender and honeysuckle and a sparkling, effervescent finish.
Color Coffee Roasters is the brainchild of Charlie Gundlach, who turned his backyard roasting obsession into a legit operation in Eagle, Colorado, back in 2016. They’re pretty geeky about the science, hence the name Color, which links specific tasting notes to actual colors in a spectrum. Yet, they keep the vibe super chill and approachable for everyone while hunting for that perfect sweet spot on their energy-efficient Loring roaster to let the natural terroir really pop. Plus, they’re big on sustainability and transparency, so you can feel good about drinking a cup that’s as kind to the planet as it is tasty.
