Roast Style: Progressive

These tend to be lighter bodied coffees, that forefront flavour nuances inherent to the specific bean. These coffees tend to have natural sweetness and distinctive aromatic properties.

As a general guide, they'll be great brewed using any filter method. We'd recommend trying them black.

Roaster's Notes

Roasting washed Ethiopian coffee demands a touch of artistry to preserve its unique regional identity. Shorter roasts are typically favoured to maintain this complexity. By foregoing an prolonged development phase after first crack, this accentuates this coffee’s gentle body and lively acidity, making it a favourite for filter coffee enthusiasts. Expect a cup brimming with bright citrus, peach and elegant floral aromas, creating a truly captivating tasting experience.
