Ethiopian Yirgacheffe
Experience the exotic and vibrant soul of coffee with our premium Natural Yirgacheffe from the Gedeo Zone of Ethiopia. By drying the coffee cherry intact around the bean, this processing method locks in an incredible natural sweetness and a rich, syrupy body. Every sip delivers a complex fruit explosion that distinguishes this origin as one of the world's most prized gourmet coffees.
Did you know?
- This coffee is grown at dizzying altitudes of over 2,000 meters, which forces the cherries to mature slowly and develop denser, more flavor-packed beans.
- The "Natural" or "Dry" process is the oldest method of coffee production and acts like a marinade, infusing the bean with the sugars and fruit flavors of the cherry skin.
- Unlike monoculture crops, these beans consist of indigenous "Heirloom" varieties that have grown wild in Ethiopia for centuries.
