Ethiopia Banko Chelchele

15 USD

Nestled in the Gedeo Zone of southern Ethiopia, the Banko Chelchele community has been growing coffee for generations at elevations that push the limits of what's possible. This lot is honey-processed - the cherry's skin is removed but the sticky mucilage is left to dry on the bean, adding sweetness and complexity to an already extraordinary cup. The result is a coffee that opens with jasmine and blueberry, settles into stone fruit, and finishes long and clean. It's the kind of cup that makes you stop talking mid-sentence.
