Rose water, orange blossom, raw honey

Yukro was among the first washing stations to put western Ethiopia on the map, and we've roasted its coffee since Parlor's earliest days. This harvest, from the highlands of Agaro in the Jimma zone, is a standout: a tea-like body carrying rose water and orange blossom, anchored by raw honey, with ripe peach on the nose.

Context

Sourced from the Agaro region within the Jimma zone, Ethiopia Yukro represents the distinct profile often associated with high-quality Ethiopian exports. This specific lot is prepared by Parlor Coffee using a washed process, a method typically employed to highlight a coffee's inherent acidity and clean, refined structure. In the cup, this selection presents delicate, aromatic qualities including rose water and orange blossom, balanced by the sweetness of raw honey and ripe peach.

When evaluating such nuanced profiles, it is helpful to reference a flavor wheel to better categorize these floral and stone fruit characteristics. While washed coffees are generally celebrated for their clarity and brightness, the specific terroir of the Jimma zone often contributes a unique complexity that distinguishes these beans from other regional varieties. This offering serves as a refined example of how careful processing can elevate the subtle, elegant notes characteristic of the region.
