 THE STORY BEHIND

This lot comes to us from the Teklu Dembel washing station in the Kochere Woreda of Yirgacheffe. This area has many of the old, heirloom Yirgacheffe cultivars in production, which definitely adds to the unique aromatics and the intensity of cup profile. The average altitude of these farms is 1850 to 2200 masl. We've been so impressed by the samples that we cupped from Teklu Dembel, boasting sweet fruits and an overall cleanliness on the pallet, and we're glad to have secured such a solid coffee of this size. This coffee was prepared to Grade 1 standards, meaning only the heaviest (peak ripeness) coffee cherry makes it into this lot.
There's an intensity to this coffee's profile that is floral, bracing, and full of sweet fruits. The Aromatics are very perfumed with dried wild flowers and fresh jasmine, and there's a sweet tropical note of mango and passion fruit.
