From the roaster
Abana Estate is an East African light roast classic, perfect for fans of the sweet and floral clarity of our washed-process coffees. This marks our eighth year purchasing coffees from Abana Estate and the Omran family. The Arabic word for "our father," Abana pays homage to the deep roots, rich heritage, and origins of wild Arabica coffee.

Context
Produced by the Omran family, the Ethiopia Abana Estate represents a classic expression of the Ethiopia region. This lot is prepared using the washed process, a technique that typically emphasizes a coffee's inherent acidity and clean, refined profile. By removing the fruit flesh before drying, producers can highlight the nuanced characteristics of the bean itself, often resulting in the bright, elegant clarity that many enthusiasts associate with high-quality East African harvests.
Roasted by Equator Coffees, this selection is described as fruity, sweet, and floral. These descriptors align with the delicate, aromatic qualities often found in washed coffees from this origin. To better understand how these specific attributes are categorized within the industry, you can explore the flavor wheel or learn more about the technical impact of processing methods on the final cup. This coffee serves as a sophisticated example of the Omran family’s commitment to traditional processing standards.
