2025 Gerbota - Ethiopia

This is our first release from the Gerbota site, high in the hills of Gedeo, Yirgacheffe. It is a very sweet and expressive representation of the profiles this region is known for. In the cup we find nectarine, bergamot, and wildflower honey.

The 2025 Gerbota, sourced from the Gedeo zone in Yirgacheffe, represents the distinct profile often associated with this renowned Ethiopian origin. Coffees from this region are frequently celebrated for their delicate, tea-like elegance and complex aromatic profiles. When evaluating such nuanced selections, tasters often reference the flavor wheel to identify the subtle interplay between stone fruit acidity and floral sweetness.

This specific lot, roasted by Sey Coffee, highlights a profile defined by nectarine, bergamot, and wildflower honey. While Yirgacheffe coffees are historically recognized for their bright, citrus-forward characteristics, the specific expression of these notes can vary significantly based on processing methods and local microclimates. By focusing on the clarity of these individual components, this coffee offers a focused look at the current harvest from one of the world’s most storied coffee-producing landscapes.
