ETHIOPIA LIMU

$15.00

Our featured coffee for October is a lively, washed coffee from the Limu region of Ethiopia. This unique coffee has a herbal profile, differing from the fruit-forward flavors typically found in Ethiopian coffees. The first half of the cup is highlighted by bergamot notes of Earl Grey tea. In the middle, dry sage notes appear and combine with the spicy sweetness of cinnamon orange. The finish is dry and lingering with strong sage notes and a touch of sweetness.

Roast Color: Medium

Cupping Notes: Bergamot, Sage, Cinnamon Orange

About the coffee of the month: We feature a new coffee every month. This allows us to explore more of the world of coffee outside of our normal offerings. It is available this month only, while supplies last. 

Story: This coffee is sourced from family-owned farms organized around Barkume PLC, an export company known for sourcing specialty coffee from Oromia growing region of Ethiopia. Tadese Edema, the founder of Barkume trading PLC, owns and operates several washing stations in the Shakiso district of the Guji Zone. Tadese also owns two farms in the Guji Zone totaling more than 700 acres. Barkume operates a dry-mill where the same focus on sorting and quality control at the washing stations is carried through to the final export stage. Tadese is a very accomplished businessman with other investments in hotels and gas stations but his emphasis in bringing social impact through his businesses is most important to him.  Tadese pays higher differentials to producers for cherry.  He also invests in road infrastructure, schools, and municipal government to support the coffee growing community where he operates.
