Description

This coffee comes from the Yirgacheffe region, located in southern Ethiopia, within the broader Sidamo area. Yirgacheffe is renowned worldwide for its production of high-quality coffee, to the point of being considered a micro-region of its own.

The plantations are situated at an altitude ranging from 1,700 to 2,200 meters above sea level, where the climatic conditions and fertile soil favor the growth of local Arabica varieties.

Most of the farmers are small-scale producers managing plots of less than 5 hectares, using traditional agricultural methods that are often organically based by default, without the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides.

This coffee is processed using the natural (unwashed) method, which involves drying whole coffee cherries under the sun on raised beds for a period of 10-14 days, until they reach a moisture content of 12%. During the drying process, the cherries are regularly turned and hand-sorted to remove any damaged or discolored fruit. This meticulous process contributes to the development of a complex and distinctive aromatic profile.

Tasting notes: rich and complex aromatic profile, characterized by fruity notes of blueberry and strawberry, accompanied by floral and caramel undertones. The body is smooth and creamy, with a sweet and fruity aftertaste that lingers pleasantly.

200g packaging is available as well.
