Description
Idido is the village, or kebele, where this coffee is grown and processed, in a microregion of Yirgacheffe. The soils in this region are red-brown clay soil, about 1.5 meters deep. This is an Anaerobic Natural microlot.
Coffees in Ethiopia are typically traceable to the washing station level, where smallholder farmers—many of whom own less than 1/2 hectare of land, and as little as 1/8 hectare on average—deliver cherry by weight to receive payment at a market rate. The coffee is sorted and processed into lots without retaining information about whose coffee harvest is in which bag or which lot.
The cup is delicate and sweet with winey fruit acidity; floral flavors of apple blossom and jasmine balanced with juicy, fruity flavors of raspberry and cherry.
*This is a natural/dry-processed coffee, meaning it has been dried in cherry and will have strong ferment notes.
