FROM THE ROASTER

OUR FIRST ETHIOPIAN COFFEE OF THE 2026 SEASON - DANCHE! WE HAVE LONG BEEN FANS OF CLASSIC WASHED YIRGACHEFFE/GEDEB COFFEES, AND THIS IS THE FIRST OF THAT SORT WE HAVE BROUGHT ONTO OUR MENU IN QUITE SOME TIME. THIS SEASON'S DANCHE LOT PRODUCED BY HABTAMU FEKADU AGA IS NOTHING SHORT OF SPECTACULAR. THE CUP BEGINS WITH PERFUMED LAVENDER IN AROMA AND TASTE, FOLLOWED BY COMPLEX, BRIGHT RED AND YELLOW FRUITS LIKE RASPBERRY AND PEACH. THE SIP FINISHES WITH A DELIGHTFUL EFFERVESCENCE, MIRRORING A CRISP AND REFRESHING CHAMPAGNE. BROUGHT IN THROUGH OUR PARTNERS CROP TO CUP.
