    I bought a bag of this, and I haven't gotten a great result from a few different extractions. I think this bag is roasted a bit past light. It's probably a little bit more acidic and maybe a little bit more bitter roast. The most drinkable one I probably did a little bit too much water which softened up the problematic notes a bit.

    Cupping Method:Pourover, v60 and Chemex attempts. Purchased from Concord Market.

    The smell was rich and deep so I had high hopes, but the flavor was not very complex. It wasn’t bad, just not great.

    Unique but relatively weaker flavor, with a dry finish. I was left wishing for a stronger flavor.

More Details

Roast Level: Light
Light roast coffee is a delicately roasted coffee that retains more of the beans' natural flavors and characteristics. Light-roasted coffees have bright acidity, complex fruit, and floral notes. Light roast coffee does not have less caffeine than darker roasts because caffeine levels remain stable during roasting.
Bean Source Country: Ethiopia
Widely regarded as the birthplace of coffee, Ethiopia boasts diverse and complex flavors, from bright, floral, and citrusy in Yirgacheffe to wine-like and berry-toned in Sidama. The country's heirloom varieties, combined with unique processing methods, make Ethiopian coffee truly distinctive and sought-after by enthusiasts worldwide.
Bean Source Region: Yirgacheffe
Yirgacheffe, a micro-region within Sidama in Ethiopia, grows coffee highly sought after for its complex, bright, and fruity flavor profile. Yirgacheffe coffee often exhibits citrus, berries, and jasmine notes, vibrant acidity, and a delicate, tea-like body. This region mainly produces heirloom Arabica varietals, which are indigenous to Ethiopia and possess a rich genetic diversity. Some specific varietals grown in Yirgacheffe include Kurume, Dega, and Wolisho, which are revered for their distinctive characteristics and contribute to the coffee's unique taste.
