Sourced from the lush, subtropical climate of the Yirgacheffe region within Sidama, this Ethiopian coffee offers delicate notes of chamomile, floral undertones, and a hint of vanilla. Unlike our Sidama coffee, this Yirgacheffe has a distinctly aromatic profile, shaped by the region's unique environment. The diverse growing conditions across coffee regions reveal how climate and soil impact flavor, creating a rich exploration of taste. Comparing coffees from places like Honduras and Ethiopia is a way to journey through the world’s coffee culture from the comfort of home.
