Regular price

If we have one moral imperative as a roaster of exceptional specialty coffee, it is surely to always ensure we have a washed Ethiopian offering on the menu.

Philosophical obligations aside, this number from prolific Sidama producer, Daye Bensa, earns it's place on the menu and in any cup with it's floral complexity and fruity fullness.Ā 

An elegant cup with classic notes of lime and black tea are balanced with kiwi, grape, peach and a smooth hint of chocolate on the finish.Ā
