Complex fruity flavor, tangerine, maple syrup sweetness, chocolaty nutty, smooth think body

Yirgacheffe is actually part of the Sidamo (or Sidama, the native people preferred) region in southern Ethiopia, but its exquisite washed coffees are so well-known that is has been sub-divided into its own micro-region. There are 28 cooperatives registered under Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (YCFCU) in the region, representing some 38,000 farmers. The production is predominantly washed, although a smaller amount of natural sundried coffees also come out of Yirgacheffe which are usually at top graded selling at premium.

This lot of Natural process Yirgacheffe coffee is sourced from Blossom Valley Inc., based in Taiwan, from one of the washing stations Haru Coop. Main reason of sourcing this lot of coffee is because of its natural process, which will bring a extra fruity and complex flavor to the cup.

Haru cooperative composed of 1671 farmers covering 1136 hectares of land. Most contributing farmers own less than a hectare of land, and they grow coffee simply as a backyard cash crop. Coffee will usually be interspersed with other subsistence crops, such as sweet potato, mangos and avocados, but there are no other primary cash crops grown in the region. Around 85 percent of Ethiopians still live rurally and make a living from agriculture; each family usually lives in a modest home (often a single round mud hut) and farms their own plot of land, where they grow both cash crops and food for their own consumption.
