About coffee from Ethiopia

Ethiopia is where arabica coffee comes from, and it still grows thousands of local heirloom varieties. Most of it is grown by smallholder farmers in regions like Yirgacheffe, Sidama and Guji. Washed Ethiopians are known for floral, citrus and tea-like flavors, and naturals for ripe berry.

What the process means

In a natural (dry) process, the whole coffee cherry dries in the sun with the fruit still on the bean. That usually gives a heavier body and riper, fruitier flavors like berry and tropical fruit.
