High in the lush, rolling hills of Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia—one of the most renowned coffee-growing regions in the world—thrives a coffee that embodies the soul of its birthplace. Ethiopia, often referred to as the birthplace of coffee, produces beans that are as rich in history as they are in flavor.
Here, at altitudes ranging from 1,700 to 1,900 meters, smallholder farmers carefully cultivate the legendary Heirloom variety, an ancient lineage of Arabica beans known for its exceptional complexity. As the coffee cherries ripen under the warm African sun, they are harvested with care and undergo a natural sun-drying process. This traditional method enhances the beans’ intrinsic sweetness, preserving their vibrant fruit and floral notes.
With every sip, this coffee reveals its delicate and enchanting character. A gentle sweetness unfolds, accompanied by mild acidity reminiscent of red fruits. Floral undertones dance on the palate, leading to a lingering, subtly spiced finish. It’s a cup that embodies elegance—refined, aromatic, and deeply satisfying.
Perfectly suited for a French press, this coffee allows its intricate flavors to fully develop, delivering a rich and immersive tasting experience.
