Ethiopia Yirgacheffe ArichaWhile the name Aricha may be well-known, it is uncommonly known that what we are referring to is the Kebele Aricha which is located within the WoredaYirgacheffe. Most Yirgacheffe coffee is prepared by the conventional wet method, in which the skin and pulp are removed from the beans or seeds before they are dried, encouraging a cleanly high-toned, often intensely floral- and citrus-toned cup. This Yirgacheffe is a "natural" or dry-processed version, however, meaning the beans were dried inside the fruit, encouraging a deeper-toned floral and fruit character.
Grade-G1Q1Grades in Ethiopia depend on visual inspection for defects and on cup quality. Grade 1(G1) is considered the highest quality coffee.
AromaCream Candy, Chocolate, Passion Fruit, Vanilla
Roasting NotesRoasters should be sure to use a low heat as the beans are delicate, and over roasting can result in a bitter taste. Light and medium roast are popular, and provide the full flavors and rich aromas.
Brewing NotesThis coffee bean is known for being able to be brewed hot or cold. But it is not recommended to serve milk with this coffee as it dulls the acidity of the bean.
