Situated 395 km south of Addis Ababa at 1,500–2,000 MASL, Yirgacheffe is rich in fertile soils, lush forests, and the perfect climate for coffee. Founded in 1926, the town is home to over 72,000 people from more than 30 nationalities, all connected through the local coffee economy. Known as “Green Gold,” Yirgacheffe coffee is grown organically by smallholders and has earned international recognition.
This is our second year purchasing from Birhan, and we were proud to be the first to ever buy from him the year before. This lot offers bright blueberry, zesty lime, and delicate lavender notes—classic flavours of the region in every cup. We're feeling pretty privileged to have gotten our hands on this outstanding cup once again!
