Coffee Details

About This Coffee

Habtamu Fekadu Aga runs a washing station on the Chelbesa-Worka border in Yirgacheffe, working with around 220 smallholder farmers to produce certified organic washed coffees. Cherries are fermented for roughly 60 hours and then carefully sun-dried, a slow and meticulous approach that protects the cup's clarity and delicate aromatics.

Yirgacheffe sits at the heart of Ethiopia's most celebrated coffee country, and the high elevation here, between 2000 and 2200 metres, slows cherry maturation to concentrate the floral and citrus character this region is famous for. In recent years the station has separated smaller lots and made additional second payments to growers, helping lift farmer earnings in the area to record highs.

We roast Aga light in Kuala Lumpur to honour all of that work, keeping the bergamot, peach and grapefruit notes bright and intact.

How to Brew Ethiopia Aga

If the cup tastes sharp or sour, grind a little coarser; if it tastes flat or hollow, grind finer to draw out more sweetness.

How Much Coffee Is in a Bag?

At a filter dose of about 15g per cup, a 250g bag makes roughly 16 cups and a 1kg bag makes around 65 cups. With a coffee this aromatic and clean, the larger bag is a lovely way to make Yirgacheffe your everyday pour-over.

Frequently Asked Questions

We roast to order in Kuala Lumpur and ship within one week of your roast date. This washed Ethiopian is at its best around 2 to 3 weeks after roasting, so there is no rush to brew it the day it lands.

Is it really organic?
