Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Coffee
Ethiopian fresh roasted coffee.
Wow. If you have never had Ethiopian coffee you are in for a treat. Many consider this to be the birthplace of coffee, Yirgacheffe needs little introduction. Ancient landrace varieties dominate the smallholder coffee gardens that are often organic by default, tended by farmers who intercrop food crops to maximize the potential of this region’s fertile soil.
Most Yirgacheffe farmers are smallholders farming fewer than three hectares, 7.5 acres. Coffee is generally sold as cherry to centralized washing stations. This practice helps control quality and allows wet mills to bring out the distinctive Yirgacheffe terroir.
This bean has complex flavors throughout the cup. It will subtly change as the coffee cools while still leaving you satisfied with every sip. Frankly, I could sit and just smell the beans without ever drinking it, maybe a slight exaggeration, but they truly are an aromatic delight.
