Origins
The Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia has made coffee history with its innovative wet processing. A unique washing station was built here, which marked a complete transformation in the quality of Ethiopian coffee. Unlike other parts of the country where coffee is grown on a massive scale, Yirgacheffe prides itself on smaller-scale production of traditional indigenous coffee types. Coffee from the southwest of Ethiopia has an intensely floral, sweet aroma and excellent quality.
The unique wet processing of the coffee berries involves several steps. Immediately after harvesting, it starts with a wash of water. This separates the low-quality berries, which remain on the surface, and pressing the rest through special plates to remove the pulp. The berries can remain in the water for up to 18 hours. The next step is fermentation. It strips the wet coffee beans of their mucilage and brings out the coffee's flavor and aromatic qualities. Then comes the drying and packing in jute bags.
Benefits of coffee
Coffee packaging preview
Our quality aluminum packaging lacks any bold graphics, as we’d rather focus on the taste of our coffee. It always comes fresh thanks to degassing valve, which releases the gases that occur after roasting. Thanks to the hermetic seal, this container helps the contents further keep their freshness and protect them against humidity, light or foreign odors.
