The Deets

This coffee comes from the Reko mountain in the Kochere district of Yirgacheffe. The combination of high altitude, fertile soil, and ideal weather conditions yields a unique and complex flavor. The team hand-picks the ripest coffee cherries and delivers them to the washing station. There, they are rinsed, floated to remove defects, and milled. The seeds are then dried in the sun to a 10-11% moisture level. The resulting cup has elegant floral notes that linger like the dang Cranberries. Your tongue will take a shvitz in flavors that remind us of honeysuckle, orange blossom, and white grape.

REST IN PEACE

We recommend resting fresh coffee before drinking it. This allows the volatility of the roast time to subside, and the sweetness and character to shine. For best results, rest washed coffees for 5–10 days, natural coffees for 10–15 days, and experimental processed coffees for 15–30 days.
