About your coffee
Ethiopia Washed Yirgacheffe Grade 1 is a highly prized coffee that captures the rich heritage of Ethiopian coffee growing. Cultivated in the famous Yirgacheffe region, this coffee is known for its outstanding quality, unique flavour profile, and the impressive altitudes where it thrives.
Grown at elevations between 1,700 and 2,200 metres above sea level, the combination of cool temperatures, plentiful rainfall, and nutrient-rich soils creates the perfect conditions for slow cherry maturation. This careful growing process results in beans with remarkable complexity and a vibrant aroma.
The coffee offers a medium body and full flavour, highlighted by a superb spicy undertone.
For coffee lovers seeking the finest Ethiopian single origin medium-dark roast coffee beans, our Single Origin coffee collection highlights unique flavours from the world’s most renowned regions. You can also browse our Medium-Dark roast coffee collection to discover more smooth and full-bodied coffees, carefully roasted to bring out rich complexity with every cup.
To ensure maximum freshness, quality and consistency, every batch is roasted in small quantities in Norfolk, United Kingdom.
