Single Origin Ethiopia Shakiso Organic. Light Espresso roast.
Washed processed, Ethiopian Hierloom varieties, grown at 1795-1900 masl in Yirgacheffe.
This coffee is clean and floral with juicy apricot and toffee sweetness.
The coffee is picked and delivered to the Boji washing station, depulped within 12 hours, and washed using spring water. The soils in this region are red-brown clay soil, about 1.5 meters deep.Coffees in Ethiopia are typically grown on very small plots of land by farmers who also grow other crops. The majority of smallholders will deliver their coffee in cherry to a nearby washing station or central processing unit, where their coffee will be sorted, weighed, and paid for or given a receipt. Coffee is then processed, usually washed or natural, by the washing station and dried on raised beds. The washing stations serve as many as several hundred to sometimes a thousand or more producers, who deliver cherry throughout the harvest season.
