| About The Bean |
One of the most notable coffee producing regions in Ethiopia is Yirgacheffe. This small area is in the southern part of the country, encompassing Gedeo zone – part of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People’s Region (SNNP) – and part of Oromia Region. This eastern portion of the highlands is surrounded by Oromia Region on all sides but the north which borders the Sidama region. Yirgacheffe is home to fertile soil, high elevation, and a tropical climate with moderate wet and dry seasons.
This Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Organic is washed and dried on traditional raised beds, which promote even drying with optimal airflow. The heirloom varietal, idyllic climate and processing methods combine to create a signature flavor. The profile is renowned for its bright acidity, delicate body and floral aroma.
