Ethiopia Natural Misty Valley coffee green bean – 1kg

The basic difference between natural and washed coffees is how much of the cherry is left on the bean before drying. Natural coffees are dried with the entire cherry on, honeys and pulped naturals with part of it on, and washed coffees with none of it on.

Developed by exporter and producer partner Abdullah Bagersh, the Natural Misty Valley is subject to an incredible amount of care from start to finish. When the ripe cherries are first brought to the mill to dry on raised African beds, they are constanly turned (day and night!) for the first 48 hours of drying to ensure an even evaporation of the moisture from the cherry. This lends a consistency and cleanliness to the cup

DETAILS COFFEE GREEN BEAN ETHIOPIA MISTY VALLEY NATURAL

• Region : Yirgacheffe
• Process: Natural
• Harvest Period: October – December
• Altitude : 1750m – 1950m
• Moisture 10.4 %

Flavor: An exotic, almost violent cup. The aroma is lush with intense, shifting ripe to overripe fruit and floral notes, blueberry most distinctly, with pungent, sweet spice undertones. In the cup the fruit notes turn markedly winy, or perhaps cidery. A fermented version of blueberry remains dominant, but the rich, complexly suggestive fruit notes hint at chocolate as well. A slight, pungent saltiness shadows the cup, but smoothes out reassuringly in a convincingly smooth, long finish

Aroma: Strawberry Sweetness, Citrus Acidity, Milk Chocolate Finish
