Chelbesa Grade 1 - Ethiopia, washed

blackberry • grape • ripe

It was worth the wait! Here is our first washed Ethiopian coffee of the season - with jammy and ripe flavors of blackberry and grape.

At the washing station, coffee cherries float in water to remove debris and underripe cherries. Then they're de-pulped and left to dry ferment in tanks for 2-3 days, followed by washing and drying on raised beds. To ensure even drying, the parchment is frequently mixed and rotated, taking 7-10 days.

Process: Washed

Region: Gedeb, Ethiopia
