Ethiopia Arsosala comes from the distinguished Guji region of southern Ethiopia, where the Arsosala washing station has been serving the local coffee community since 2015. This microlot is cultivated by approximately 1,900 smallholder farmers across the Uraga woreda of Guji at an impressive altitude of 1,900 metres above sea level.
The coffee undergoes a rigorous washed processing method that begins with the careful cherry selection of around 90% perfectly ripe cherries which have the ideal red colour. The cherries are depulped on the same day they're picked, fermented overnight, then washed clean and dried on raised beds. This precise approach showcases the distinctive qualities of Ethiopian Heirloom varieties and highlights the unique terroir of this high-altitude region.
This careful processing delivers a sophisticated cup with distinctive tasting notes of apricot, milk chocolate, and bergamot.
Roasted for espresso or filter.
