Ethiopia Washed Guji Buri Bekele
Ethiopia Washed Guji Buri Bekele
This lot comes from a high altitude washing station from producer Biru Bekele in the Oromia region of Guji, where the many smallholder farms in the region bring their harvest, still in the cherries, to be sold by weight. The coffee is then depulped and fermented overnight before being washed and left on raised beds to sun-dry for 8-15 days.
This resulting cup is delicate, interesting, and complex. Look for floral and spice notes on both the nose and the tongue, such as cinnamon, cardamom, and jasmine, as well as stone fruit notes of peach and damson plum.
