Raw Coffee

Yirgacheffe

Yirgacheffe coffee is produced in the Southern Nations and Nationalities People’s Region state at a Yirgacheffe woreda (district), in the Gedeo zone.  Smallholder farmers that produce 100% pure Arabica and organic coffee by tradition grow and process the coffee.

The Process

Yirgacheffe coffee is typically harvested from mid of November to January. Although the majority of Yirgacheffe coffees are wet processed there are exceptional natural sun-dried coffees as well. All purchased handpicked cherries, from smallholders in the local area who own between 0.25 and 2 hectares of land, gathered  for processing either at washing or drying station. In the case of washed processing, cherries go through the laborious process of soaking, fermentation, cleaning, and drying. While for sun-dried processing, red cherries  laid on raised beds to dry. Drying may take two weeks or longer to achieve the desired result of the fruit being completely dried around the bean and ready for hulling

Yirgacheffe in a cup

Even in comparison to other Ethiopian locations, Yirgacheffe exhibits a great deal of variation in terms of basic notes. In nutshell, however, the main notes typically center around tropical fruits, strawberries, bergamot, peaches, apricots, and berries. It’s also well-known for having a mellow, subtle acidity.  Coffee from Yirgacheffe often has a juicy mouthfeel and a light to medium body.

Raw Coffee

Guji

Guji zone is located in Oromia region in Ethiopia. It is named after a tribe of the Oromo people who have inhabited the mountains for thousands of years. Guji located next to the other two well-known coffee regions named after Sidama and Yirgacheffe. Primary source of income for the residents in this area is coffee production. Interestingly, Guji was previously a part of the Sidama area. However, they have split apart and established the Guji zone since 2002. Since then, the Guji region has risen to become one of the world’s top coffee-producing zones. Even though Guji and Sidama are geographically close, they taste nothing alike and are highly distinct on their own.

The Process

Guji coffee  in general harvested from November to January. Natural processing accounts for the vast majority of coffee production. Ripe coffee cherries are collected from smallholder farmers before being placed on high drying beds. The cherries will then dry for three to five weeks, spending half of the time in full sun and half of the time in shade. After the coffee has reached its ideal humidity, the dried cherries will be rested in food grade jute bags before being milled, sorted, and packaged for export at the dry mill.

Guji in a cup

The coffees from this region are renowned for their smooth, floral notes, as well as their exceptional flavor and body. However, the flavor of coffee can vary greatly depending on where it is grown and how it is processed. Washed processed Guji coffees are more bright and lively with more dry fruit, black cumin, raisin, passion fruit, black tea  and brightness than your average cup. In contrast, the majority of Guji sundried coffees have a startling flavor while also being delicate and citrus acidic and nuanced with honey and spicy aromas.

Raw Coffee

Sidamo

Sidamo coffee originates from southern Ethiopia and is made from unique Ethiopian types native to the region. It is well-known for its delicious flavor. The Sidamo region is Ethiopia’s largest coffee region. Coffee growing areas extend outside Sidama’s politically recognized borders, encompassing districts ranging from Nensebo woreda in the west to Konta woreda in the east. This Ethiopia Sidamo Coffee is produced by local villagers on small garden plots and where other subsistence crops are also grown.

The Process

Sidamo coffee is typically grown at high altitudes, between 1,500 and 2,200 meters above sea level, and is often shade-grown under the canopy of larger trees. The coffee is typically processed using the washed method, which involves removing the outer layers of the coffee cherry and fermenting the beans before they are dried. While the natural processed are hand-picked and sorted, then raised on drying beds until the coffee is ready to be hulled and shipped.

Sidamo in a cup

Sidamo coffee has a delicious and complex flavor profile, with delicate notes of spicy, clove like, cardamom  floral and rue-like herbals finish. It tends to have a medium body with a lemony-limey brightness. The natural Sidamo offers the same balanced complexity and core notes as the washed profile. However, the difference in fermentation reveals more depth and structure in the fruity notes. Naturals lean towards winey tastes. 

Raw Coffee

Limmu

Limmu, a region in south western Highlands of Oromia, Ethiopia, is the name of the area after which  Limmu coffee is named. This region is highly recognized for its abundance of water and forest. The majority of Limmu coffee is washed because the availability of water supply simplify the washing process easier. Cultivated in less than one hectare of land, semi-forest coffee makes up the majority of the coffee produced in Limmu. One of the key reasons Limmu is a favorable area for coffee farmers is its humus-rich soils as a result of organic matter decomposition.

The Process

The harvest season for Limmu coffee is October through December. Following careful hand picking, cherry is pulped and divided into three categories based on density using pulping machine. The best quality lots are then produced by processing each of these grades independently. After fermentation, parchment is spread out on raised beds and cleaned with clean water. Raking the parchment often ensures uniform drying. The drying time for parchment is seven to twelve days. Once dry, then parchment is transported to dry mill in Addis Ababa.

Limmu in a cup

Limmu beans are more consistent than some other variants of Ethiopian coffee beans. Being a washed bean, it exhibits full flavor and a clean cup with a caramel, fruity, winy, smooth, herbal and green apple notes with strong cocoa finish.  It has a citric acidity, medium body with balanced mouthfeel.

Raw Coffee

Djimma

The districts of Kaffa and Illubabor in southwest Ethiopia are home to Djimma coffee plantations. While these areas produce the majority of Ethiopia’s commercial grade coffee, which accounts for about half of the nation’s exports, they also produce a modest amount of specialty grade coffee, mostly from forest harvests.

The Process

November to January is when Djimma coffee is typically harvested. The bulk of coffee is produced by natural processing methods. To separate the unripe, overripe, and damaged cherries and to get rid of dirt, twigs, and leaves, the harvested cherries are often sorted and cleaned. Then, the coffee cherries are spread out in the sun, either on large concrete or on matting raised to waist height. Raking or turning the cherries by hand helps to maintain even drying and keeps mold from growing while they dry. Depending on the weather, drying the cherries to the ideal moisture level could take up to four weeks. The dried cherries are kept in large quantities in designated silos until they are transported to the mill for grading, sorting, and hulling.

Raw Coffee

Lekempt

Nekempti, another name for Lekempti, is a region in the state of Wellega, which lies in the southwest highlands of Ethiopia. The majority of people living in Welega are members of the Oromo ethnic group, who are thought to have been the first to cultivate coffee and have a long relationship with the plant that is closely entwined with Oromo culture. Farming, particularly coffee farming, is the Oromo people’s principal occupation and source of income. Kelem Wollega, East Wollega, and Gimbi (West Wollega) are the sources of Lekempti coffee.

The Process

From November to January is the harvest season for Lekempt coffee. Nearly all of the coffee produced in this area is unwashed, as small-scale farmers dry their coffee beans at home before selling the dried cherries to Akrabis (local traders) when they need money. There aren’t many washing stations in Wollega as the coffee-producing regions are dispersed, which makes it difficult for growers to sell the fresh cherries.

Lekempt in a cup

Lekempt beans are typically elongated and referred to as long berry and have full body. It has a slight distinct fruity flavor and a delicate and a mild acidity that combines perfectly with the exotic and clean aftertaste.
