About Ethiopia Sidamo 3

Another natural processed ECX selection from Sidamo this lot unfortunately comes with minimal traceability - as is the case with most lots being sold out of the exchange.

What we do know is the cup speaks for itself. Bold intense overipe fruit sweetness, orange, cherry, deep aromatics and a juicy mouthfeel.

About Sidamo

Sidamo is a province in the southern part of Ethiopia, with its capital city at Irgalem, and after 1978 at Awasa.

Through our friends at Trabocca we source our Sidamo coffees from a number of direct relationship cooperatives and farmer groups; almost all of these coffees are grown at between 1800-2200mtrs above sea level and most of the cooperatives produce both washed and unwashed coffees.

Al coffees in Sidamo are harvested between October and January with the main shipping period commencing in April through to about September each year.
