Overview
Originating from the renowned Idido micro-region within Yirgacheffe, this lot represents the pinnacle of high-altitude Ethiopian coffee. We tasted a bright, citrus-forward profile characterized by vibrant orange and stone fruit notes of apricot, supported by the elegant, tea-like structure of Earl Grey. The washed processing ensures a clean, crisp transparency that highlights the complex floral and bergamot nuances typical of the area. This coffee offers a sophisticated experience for professionals seeking the classic, high-clarity profile of premium Gedeo zone selections.
