About this coffee :
Guji coffee has been receiving a lot of attention from the specialty coffee world in the past several years, and for good reason. Many privately owned washing stations have sprung up recently in an area that has traditionally processed coffee using a natural (dry) method. The quality of these natural coffees can be outstanding, which isn’t surprising considering the area’s close proximity to Yirgacheffe.
“Close” is relative in terms of travel in Ethiopia where 100 km can mean a 10-hour drive, the silver lining being the incredible variety of terrain and culture at relatively short distances.
Despite being located near Yirgacheffe (as the crow flies,) we’ve seen a huge diversity of coffee profiles from Guji Zone, ranging from the sweet lemon candy and floral tea you might expect from the area, to heavy green melon, peach and rose flavours.
Grade 1 typically requires additional labour-intensive drying and cherry sorting practices, resulting in more distinct & clean fruit flavours with bergamot brightness.
A coffee familiar for its high sweet notes, with lots of white grapes & bergamot fruity notes, with an orange blossom floral finish & delicate lemon tea like body. Definitely recommends having it brewed as V60 or Clever Dripper!
