About This Coffee

A classic Yirgacheffe with fruit-forward sweetness and silky chocolate depth.

This single origin from Ethiopia's renowned Yirgacheffe region delivers everything you want from a natural-processed African coffee—bright berry notes, milk chocolate richness, and a smooth vanilla finish. Grown by smallholder farmers in the Chelchele district at elevations up to 2,200 meters, then sun-dried on raised beds for 12-15 days to develop its signature fruity complexity.

Tasting Notes

  • Blueberry – Juicy, fruit-forward sweetness
  • Milk Chocolate – Smooth, creamy cocoa undertones
  • Vanilla – Subtle sweetness on the finish
  • Black Tea – Delicate, floral backdrop

Why This Coffee Stands Out

Yirgacheffe is the birthplace of coffee, and this lot exemplifies why the region is legendary. The natural processing—where cherries dry whole in the sun—creates that distinctive berry sweetness you can't get from washed coffees. Hand-sorted at peak ripeness and shade-grown under native Ethiopian trees.

We roast this to a medium level to preserve the delicate fruit notes while developing the chocolate body. The result is a cup that's complex enough for pour-over enthusiasts but approachable for anyone who appreciates good coffee.

Best Brewing Methods

  • Pour Over – The ideal method to experience the full range of fruit and floral notes. Medium-fine grind, 2:30-3:00 brew time.
  • French Press – Brings out the chocolate body and creamy texture. Coarse grind, 4 minutes steep.
  • Drip / Auto – Makes a reliably delicious pot. Medium grind, filtered water recommended.

Who This Coffee Is For

  • Adventurous drinkers who want to taste what specialty coffee is all about
  • Pour-over enthusiasts seeking complex, fruit-forward profiles
  • Anyone curious about natural-processed African coffees
  • Those who appreciate ethically-sourced beans

Freshness Guarantee

Every bag is roasted to order in Vancouver, WA—not sitting on a warehouse shelf for months. Your coffee ships within 1-2 business days of roasting, arriving at peak freshness with all those delicate Yirgacheffe flavors intact.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "natural processed" mean?
Natural (or dry) processing means the coffee cherries are dried whole in the sun, with the fruit still surrounding the bean. This extended contact with the fruit creates the distinctive berry sweetness and wine-like complexity that natural coffees are known for.
What's the best way to brew this coffee?
Pour over is ideal for experiencing the full fruit and floral complexity. Use a medium-fine grind with a 2:30-3:00 brew time. French press also works beautifully, highlighting the chocolate body—use a coarse grind and steep for 4 minutes.
How does this compare to your Guji Ethiopia?
Both are exceptional Ethiopian single origins, but they offer different experiences. This Yirgacheffe has more pronounced blueberry and vanilla notes with a medium body, while our Guji tends toward brighter, more citrus-forward acidity. Try both to discover your preference!
Should I get whole bean or ground?
For maximum freshness and flavor, we recommend whole bean if you have a grinder. Ground coffee is convenient but begins losing aromatics immediately after grinding. If you choose ground, we'll grind it fresh right before shipping.
How should I store this coffee?
Store in an airtight container at room temperature, away from light and heat. Avoid the refrigerator or freezer. For best flavor, enjoy within 2-4 weeks of the roast date printed on your bag.
