This coffee comes from the Gara Agena Washing Station in Sidama, Ethiopia, as part of the region's "Special Prep" lots produced in limited quantities. Cherries are handpicked from smallholder farms with 90% perfectly ripe, 5% semi-red, and 5% overripe. The coffee is soaked, depulped, and fermented for 36 hours before being dried on raised beds for 21 days. Located near the Geta River in the fertile highlands of Sidama, this premium Grade 1 lot is roasted for espresso and presents a sweet and balanced profile with notes of milk chocolate, strawberry jam, and blueberry.
Tim Williams founded this modern Australian micro-roastery in 2015 (originally as Bureaux, rebranded in 2022) with a mission to champion what he believes are the world's best coffees. Fieldwork's philosophy focuses exclusively on washed process coffees, prizing clarity, sweetness, and sense of place across their entire range. Williams' approach emphasizes connecting customers with conscientiously grown, seasonally sourced coffees that speak clearly to their origins, representing the farmers who nurture these exceptional beans.
