Bombe

In 2018, Tomas established an onsite washing station, elevating control and quality of his lots: berry acidity & a layered body.

Produced by Tomas, this Bombe selection from Obadiah Coffee showcases the distinct profile of a washed-process Ethiopian coffee. While washed coffees are generally celebrated for their clean, vibrant acidity and ability to highlight the inherent characteristics of the bean, this specific lot is noted for its berry acidity and layered body. Understanding the impact of processing methods is essential for any enthusiast, as the removal of the fruit before drying often results in a more refined cup compared to natural-processed alternatives. To better identify the nuances of this coffee, we recommend referencing the flavor wheel to help articulate the complexity of its layered structure. By focusing on the clarity provided by the washed method, this offering serves as a compelling example of how careful post-harvest handling can elevate the final experience in the cup.
