From the roaster
Since 2018, Mustafa Mohamed Ali has been one of our closest partners in Ethiopia. This naturally processed lot is a beautiful expression of that relationship: plush and fruit-driven, with peach, blueberry and raspberry sweetness balanced by delicate florals and tea-like complexity. Roasted omni style, it is equally expressive as filter or espresso.

Context
Produced by Mustafa Mohamed Ali, this Ethiopian coffee represents the meticulous craftsmanship found within the Ethiopia region. As a natural-processed coffee, the cherries are dried with the fruit intact, a technique that often imparts a heavier body and pronounced sweetness to the final cup. You can learn more about the nuances of these processing methods to better understand how this approach influences the profile.
Roasted by The Barn, this lot features vibrant tasting notes of peach, blueberry, raspberry, and florals. These bright, fruit-forward characteristics are common in high-quality Ethiopian selections and can be mapped against the flavor wheel to help identify the specific aromatic compounds present. By focusing on the interplay between the natural processing and the inherent qualities of the origin, this coffee offers a distinct expression of its producer’s work, highlighting the clarity and complexity that define the region's output.
