Flavor Description

This “Lion King” Sidamo natural follows a very classic and popular Ethiopian sweet-fruit profile. Expect strawberry, blueberry jam, floral honey, and a touch of ripe peach. The sweetness-acidity is lively without becoming too sharp, and the finish carries soft florals with syrup-like sweetness.

Why It’s Popular

It keeps the most lovable traits of Sidamo naturals — berry character, sweetness, and aromatic lift — without leaning too heavily into fermentation. That makes it a strong everyday option and an easy entry point into Ethiopian natural coffees.

Brewing Notes

  • Pour-over: Recommended water temperature 90–91°C, ratio 1:15.5 to 1:16
  • Tip: A faster-flow dripper can help keep the fruit character cleaner and the sweetness more focused
