Description
The Guji region of Ethiopia is swathed in heavy forests thanks to the Guji tribe, which has prevented numerous mining and logging operations from disturbing this distant, lush land. Because of these environmental preservation efforts, Guji has remained a prime coffee-growing spot for years. Even in its isolation, the farmers in this region – many a part of the Deri Kidame community – have managed to establish traditional, organic coffee farms and send their beans for processing about 19 miles east in the Benti Nenka community.
Our Ethiopia coffee is roasted to a profile that enhances flavor notes of blueberry jam, caramel and strawberry with undertones of darek chocolate and apricot. A vibrant balance and a creamy body. It’s easy to imagine yourself among the trees in Guji when you’ve got a cup of Ethiopia in your hand.
