Yirgacheffe Ajere
This bean provides intense flavors of tropical fruit followed by a delicate floral aroma. Bold passionfruit notes are transformed into lingering pineapple and lemonade flavors. This beautifully refined cup is characterized by strong citric acidity and sweet herbal notes of lavender, jasmine, bergamot and hops and is kept as a medium roast.
This bean comes from the village of Edido, in the Aricha sub-region of the Yirgacheffe District of Ethiopia. The fertile soil, consistent and plentiful rains and high altitudes of 6,200-7,200 feet contribute to the high status of Yirgacheffe coffees.
The Yirgacheffe is a fully washed bean, with ripe cherries that are fermented for 36-48 hours then sun dried on African beds for up to two weeks. The beans are covered between 12pm and 3pm and at night time, to protect them from the sun and rainfall/moisture.

$22.00 – $110.00This is a full bodied, medium roast coffee that brings together a variety of complex and rich flavors. This bean is low in acidity and bitterness and carries nutty and chocolatey notes. The sweet hints of caramel and toffee balance the tartness of dark chocolate and berry for a smooth, buttery, honey-like finish.
Finca El Rincon coffee beans come from El Mirador Finca El Rincon in La Libertad, from the region Huehuehtenango, which is managed by the Molina family. The coffee is grown between 5,085 and 5,580 feet above sea level, and the varietals include Bourbon and Caturra.
This is a wet processed, washed bean, dried on raised beds.

Select optionsBurka Gudina – Organic – Natural
$22.00 – $110.00Yet another wonderful Ethiopian natural process, and Organic to boot. Satiny milk chocolate leads the way, with a clear caramel and brown sugar thread, followed by very subtle notes of dried blueberry and cherry, without any strong citrus appearance or high acidity.
These beans come from the Burka Gudina Estate, located in the Limmu Kosa district, within the Jimma Zone of Ethiopia. The farm is run by Ibrahim Hussein, a third generation coffee farmer in the area, and is marked by gentle, rolling, forested hills that range from 1,800 – 2,000 meters.
These natural process beans are dried in the sun before processing, at which point the mucilage is scrubbed off, but still leaving behind some of the dried cherry, the latter being a key component to the sweet, rich flavor of natural process coffees such as this one.
