Ethiopia Yirgacheffe

Many scholars believe the Sidama region of southern Ethiopia is where coffee originated.  Yirgacheffe is a sub-region near the small city bearing the same name.  Yirgacheffe beans are grown at an elevation of nearly 6,000 feet, so ripening is slowed allowing the fruit to develop a more distinct flavor that exhibits the soil and local climate conditions.    The end result is widely recognized as the highest quality Ethiopian coffee.  Hand-picked and wet-processed, this coffee delivers a bright, crisp acidity with a distinct citrus flavor profile.  You won't be disappointed by this 'gold standard' coffee. Ethiopian Yirgacheffe is a Medium roast.
