Flavor Description

Also from Jimma, yet a world apart from the commercial naturals: white florals, lemon, and bergamot acidity, peach and apricot sweetness in the middle, and a honeyed finish. Clarity rivals the famous southern regions.

Buying Tips

  • Background: Development programmes from the late 2000s helped local cooperatives build washing stations, greatly raising the quality of Agaro's washed coffee
  • Style: Close in profile to Yirgacheffe G1, with bright florals and citrus and a slightly fuller body

Brewing Notes

  • Pour-over: Medium-fine grind, 92°C, ratio 1:15
  • Technique: Two or three pulse pours keep the bright citrus and florals intact
