Kima Coffee

About This Coffee

This coffee is cultivated in the Guji region of Ethiopia at 2,200 meters altitude. Produced by Alemayehu Yerdaw, this is a natural processed coffee made from Heirloom varietal. The coffee comes from the Hambella Boku Saysa lot in Guji, a region known for its young coffee plants that produce exceptional beans with bright acidity and complex flavor profiles. The natural process, where beans dry in the cherry with the pulp still attached, intensifies the natural fruit flavors, resulting in a highly aromatic and complex cup.
