Varieties and Processing:

• Processing: 

  Natural- Ethiopian green coffee is celebrated for its vibrant fruit and floral flavors, characterized by excellent acidity and sweetness. Notable growing regions include Yirgacheffe, Sidama, and Guji, each offering unique cup profiles.

  Most Ethiopian coffee is naturally processed, requiring minimal resources. Only the ripest cherries are harvested and dried whole in the sun. Once they reach optimal moisture, they are hulled to separate the fruit from the beans. This method produces sweet, intense flavors with a strong fruit-forward profile.
