This Grade 1 Natural Microlot, a testament to the rich coffee heritage and expert craftsmanship of Ethiopia's Yirgacheffe region, is sourced directly from the renowned Idido Gersi washing station. Grown at high altitudes between 1,900 and 2,200 metres above sea level, the coffee cherries are meticulously hand-picked and sorted before undergoing an extended natural fermentation process with added yeast cultures.  

This unique process enhances the coffee’s complexity and contributes to its distinct flavour profile. Following fermentation, the cherries are carefully dried on raised African beds, ensuring a slow and even drying process that preserves the coffee’s delicate nuances. This limited-availability microlot offers a rare taste of Ethiopian coffee artistry, showcasing the exceptional quality and flavour that can only be achieved through a harmonious blend of nature, tradition, and expertise.
