A juicy natural Ethiopian single origin from Guji

Ethiopia Mi'eessa Robe is a single-farmer, naturally processed light roast from the Guji zone of Ethiopia. Dried whole on raised beds, it pours sweet and fruit-forward — grape juice, mixed berries and bright orange. Made for filter brewers who love a clean, expressive cup.

Tasting Notes

About This Coffee

This lot is named for its grower, Mi'eessa Robe, who farms a modest 8-hectare plot in Guji that he inherited from his parents. The land climbs from 2,000 up to 2,350 metres — high, cool elevations that let the cherries ripen slowly and develop deep, concentrated sweetness.

Mi'eessa produced enough cherry to keep his harvest fully separated and traceable to his farm alone — a genuine single-farmer lot rather than a blended community offering. The coffee is dried whole at the Sookoo station, where careful raised-bed drying coaxes out the jammy grape and berry character that defines a great Ethiopian natural.

How Much Coffee Is in a Bag?

At a filter dose of roughly 15 g per cup, a 250g bag makes about 16–17 cups and a 1kg bag makes around 65–67 cups. As a single-farmer Ethiopian lot in limited supply, every bag is a chance to brew something genuinely traceable and rare — savour it as pour-over while it lasts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this better as espresso or filter?
Filter is where it shines. The natural process and light roast give bright fruit and a clean finish that pour-over, V60 or AeroPress show off beautifully. You can pull it as a fruity espresso, but expect a lively, acidity-forward shot.

What does Mi'eessa Robe taste like?
Think grape juice, mixed berries and bright orange — juicy, aromatic and sweet, with a soft body and a clean, citrus-tinged finish. It is a classic expressive Ethiopian natural.

How fresh is it?
We roast to order and ship within one week of your roast date. For this coffee, flavour peaks around 2 to 3 weeks after roasting, so there is no rush to brew the bag down immediately.

What makes it a single origin?
Every bag is traced to one grower, Mi'eessa Robe, on a single 8-hectare farm in Guji, Ethiopia — not blended with other lots or origins. That traceability is what makes the flavour so distinct.

Do you offer free shipping?
Yes. We offer free shipping within Malaysia on orders over RM80.
