Ethiopia is known as the birthplace of coffee. This Ethiopia Natural Sidama Ardi honors origins. The clean, smooth, uniquely sweet heirloom variety coffee is named after Ardipithecus Ramidus, an important early human fossil discovered in Ethiopia.

The Sidama region’s fertile soil lends rich nutrients and deep color to its coffee. Good weather means good coffee, and this year’s harvest of Ardi is bountiful and flavorful, thanks to healthy rainfall during the growing season. Look for plenty of sweet berry and fruit notes that go perfectly with dark chocolate overtones throughout.
