ABOUT THIS COFFEE

From Ethiopia’s famed Yirgacheffe region, we bring you Chelbesa, a coffee that lives up to the reputation of one of the world’s most sought-after coffees.

Chelbesa Washing Station sits in the heart of Gedeb and works with smallholder farmers from the surrounding villages. The coffee grows in semi-forest conditions with dense vegetation, fertile red soils and plenty of shade. Add the high elevation, which slows coffee cherry ripening and gives sugars and acids more time to develop, and you get a pretty complex cup.

Roasted for espresso, expect classic Yirgacheffe character: floral, fruit-forward and tea-like, with notes of jasmine, plum and tangerine. Vibrant, clean and a seriously sippable spro.
