Dark Ethiopian Natural Single Origin

Dark roast. We take this darker than usual to add to our traditional espresso, but many find this a very smooth, very rich and very drinkable coffee all on it's own.  This natural crop is from the Durame Village of Kembata, Ethiopia. At 2100 meters above sea level, the soil is extremely fertile and ideal for growing high quality coffee beans. The farmers incorporate a 36-48 hour fermentation process in the wet mill and then use raised beds for drying the beans under the sun.  This coffee is smooth and full-bodied with notes or red berry and dark chocolate.

Sourced from the Durame Village in the Kembata region of Ethiopia, this Dark Ethiopian Natural Single Origin is roasted by Beanstock Coffee. Grown at an elevation of 2100 masl, the beans undergo a natural process, a method often associated with increased body and sweetness as the coffee cherry dries around the seed. While natural-processed coffees frequently exhibit pronounced fruit-forward profiles, this specific lot is characterized by the roaster’s notes of red berry and dark chocolate. To better understand how these descriptors align with broader industry standards, you can consult the flavor wheel for a deeper look at how specific sensory attributes are categorized. This offering highlights the distinct terroir of the Kembata region, providing a profile that balances the inherent brightness of Ethiopian coffee with the depth typically achieved through a darker roast profile.
