About This Coffee

This single-origin natural-process coffee comes from Rumudamo, Ethiopia, grown by farmer Elias Kare at approximately 2,200 meters altitude. The coffee features indigenous Ethiopian heirloom varieties, known for their small, dense beans and disease resilience. Cherries are handpicked at peak ripeness and dried naturally on raised African beds for 15–20 days with shade netting during peak afternoons. The flavor profile showcases blueberry jam, Kyoho grape, and mango, with soft strawberry, peach, and bergamot notes, finishing with a smooth oolong floral character.
