Ethiopian Yirgacheffe – Halo Beriti – Grade 1 – Green Unroasted
Out of StockTaste: Yirgacheffe is a town in the Sidama region and coffees from this region will surprise you with their intense floral and citrus notes. We like to think of the Ethiopian Yirgacheffes as the “Tabasco” of the coffees. As a dash of Tabasco will turn an ordinary chicken soup into a great cup of soup, an Ethiopian Yirgacheffe will take a medium cup to a whole new level. Many folks like it straight, and we love to use it to add zip to a blend with one of the “big classics” like a Colombian microlot.
Roast: As with most Ethiopian beans, a lighter roast – especially when using in a blend – imparts the brightness and sparkle many roasters and coffee drinkers desire. However, this particular Yirgacheffe holds up well to a Medium (City Roast) and even Medium/Dark (Full City) when you’re thinking of brewing as a single origin. In any case the roast is best stopped before 2nd crack.

About: Yirgacheffe has become famous for coffees that tastes like blueberries. This region is plentiful. The thick vegetation is a product of the warm tropical climate with moderate wet and dry seasons. Most coffee is shade-grown by small producers using organic practices. Coffees are cultivated from 1600 to 2400 masl in these highlands. The multitude of microregions creates complex profiles depending on the washing station a particular coffee is from.
Halo Beriti Washing Station was established in 2014 and serves 750 smallholder producers, who deliver their coffee in cherry form. This particular lot is part of a “special preparation” in which hand-sorting was done repeatedly throughout the receiving and drying process, ensuring that only perfect coffees made it into the bags.
The process of producing Washed coffees in Ethiopia will vary slightly from washing station to washing station, but generally speaking the coffee is picked ripe and depulped the same day. There is usually a fermentation period of 8–12 hours in open-air tanks, then washed in water channels to remove the mucilage. The coffee seeds will be spread on raised beds to dry for 5–15 days, depending on the weather.
The Cup: Fresh jasmine and fresh stone fruit with mellow cocoa flavors. Tangy acidity and fruit-like sweetness.

Dear Jane & Marty,
This is our favorite coffee as you probably know, the Ethopian Yiragcheffe! Could you please let us know when it is back in stock? It’s an amazing coffee. We’re going to be expand our palate in our next order but we are hoping to be reunited with our favorite soon.
Cordially,
Bill & Debbie Groff
Hi!
Hopefully will be in by the beginning of June. The only available Yirgacheffe was a Grade 2 so we passed on that.
We will let you know when it’s available again.
