Tell me more about this coffee
Uraga washing station is located in Guji, in the south of Ethiopia. Its high altitude, fertile soil, consistent and plentiful rainfall and an abundance of local knowledge all contribute to this unique and high-quality washed filter coffee.
This particular lot of Ethiopian heirloom coffee is sourced from 335 local smallholder farmers. Ripe cherries are hand-picked and de-pulped on the day of harvest before a 36-48 hour fermentation and washing to remove the mucilage. The coffee is then dried in the sun on traditional African-raised beds for 12-15 days, allowing the flavours to develop even further.
The indigenous heirloom varietal is responsible for the unique flavour profile, making for a refined cup with mandarin, maple syrup and hibiscus notes.
