Description: This grade 1 natural hails from the Gedeo Zone of Ethiopia, and it is processed at the Chelbesa wet mill. Grade 1 is the highest quality offered in Ethiopia, and as such, only ripe cherries are selected and meticulously sorted to reduce defect. This cup is rich and complex, while also being delicate, airy, and well balanced. On the front end, you pick up on notes of blueberry and wildflower honey. The mouthfeel is very creamy and coating, alongside it's light medium body. This is accompanied by notes of both green and jasmine tea. It finishes incredibly smooth, with notes of milk chocolate and swiss brioche. The notes of blueberry and swiss brioche really carry through as it cools, and lingers pleasantly on the palate.
Shelf Life: An unopened bag will remain tasty for five months due to our processes and packaging. We remove most of the oxygen from each bag during our packaging process and replace it with food-grade nitrogen to lovingly cradle these precious beans for a long time. We use the highest quality bags with one-way valves to retain the low-oxygen environment we create and allow our coffee to off-gas naturally.
