Ethiopian highland coffee from the Sidamo region, Yrgalem area, grown between 1600 and 1900 m above sea level. The processing washing station is owned by Abdullah Bagersh, a prominent figure in the coffee world. There, small producers deliver their harvest, mostly in very small quantities. The beans are immediately stripped with special strippers and then selected based on the density of the beans, placed in fermentation tanks where they remain for 24-48 hours. Then they are selected again and cleaned in the washing channels with clean water; then the beans are collected in tanks, from which women take and carry them in large baskets to the raised terraces, on which they distribute the beans to dry in the sun. The high temperature range reminds us that we are not at sea level, but on plateaus where considerable humidity forms when the sun goes down. For this reason, the beans are covered with wax cloth, which is removed the next morning, to continue drying, which ends when the beans have a moisture content of 12%. Espresso preparation gives an elastic cream, an elegant complexity of aromas, with floral and citrus notes such as grapefruit and tangerine and a sweetness reminiscent of honey in the aftertaste.
