About this coffee

Yirgacheffe is one of Ethiopia's most celebrated coffee areas. Grown at high altitude and washed to keep the flavors clear, this coffee is delicate, floral and tea-like.

In the cup, expect jasmine and bergamot aromas, a lemon-like sparkle and a light, silky body. It is a good pick if you like coffee that tastes closer to tea than to chocolate.

How to brew it

  • Pour-over: 15 g coffee to 250 g water at 95 °C, ground medium-fine.
  • AeroPress: use the bright recipe in our AeroPress guide.
  • Milk: best enjoyed black to keep the delicate flavors.
