Our Ethiopia is a washed, light roast coffee from Yirgacheffe, a region known for producing some of Ethiopia's most distinctive coffees. Clean, bright and aromatic, this single-origin coffee combines lively citrus with delicate floral and spice notes.
If you love lighter coffees with clarity, complexity and a tea-like body, this is one to slow down and pay attention to.
Meyer Lemon, Nutmeg & Orange Blossom
The cup opens with a bright Meyer lemon character: sweet, citrusy and just a little zingy. As the coffee cools, that initial brightness mellows into warm nutmeg with a delicate hint of orange blossom.
The body is light and tea-like, allowing those citrus, spice and floral flavors to come through clearly.
Washed Coffee from Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia
This coffee is washed processed, meaning the fruit is removed from the coffee before the beans are dried. Washed processing often produces coffees with a particularly clean cup and clearly defined flavors.
That's a great match for this Ethiopian coffee, allowing its bright citrus acidity and more delicate floral characteristics to take center stage.
How to Brew Ethiopia
We especially recommend this coffee for pour over and drip coffee. Brewing methods that emphasize clarity allow the Meyer lemon, nutmeg and orange blossom notes to really open up in the cup.
It's an excellent choice for coffee drinkers who enjoy light roast Ethiopian coffee that's bright and complex rather than dark, heavy or roasty.
And give it a minute before you finish the whole cup. As this coffee cools, its flavors continue to develop, and some of its more delicate floral and spice notes become easier to pick out.
