PROCESS: Natural

TASTING NOTES: Rose, watermelon, guava
This exceptional naturally processed coffee from Yirgacheffe is the result of the hard work of over 3200+ farmers that bring their coffee cherries to the Gargari Washing Station for processing every year. Upon arrival at the washing station, these ripe cherries are immediately spread across raised drying beds to dry for approximately 19 to 25 days. Over the course of that time, the cherries are regularly moved and rotated to ensure a uniform drying process.
We’re tasting all sorts of beautiful tropical fruit and floral notes in this lot, with rose, watermelon, and guava all coming through exquisitely in the cup. Ethiopian coffees like this are so intriguing to us because their distinctive flavor profiles truly only exist once. With multiple farmers all contributing lots to the washing station and given year-to-year changes in growing conditions, we’ll never see a coffee quite like this again. Enjoy it while it lasts!
