About This Coffee

This coffee is a single-origin Heirloom variety from the Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia, grown at altitudes between 1,880 and 2,350 meters. Processed using a natural anaerobic method, the cherries undergo a 110-hour fermentation in sealed tanks followed by a 23-day slow drying process on raised beds. This meticulous approach results in a vibrant and complex cup characterized by notes of tropical fruit, stone fruit, citrus, and a distinct liqueur-like quality.
