FROM THE ROASTER

A NEW CROP HAS ARRIVED FROM THE HIGHLANDS OF SIDAMA, ETHIOPIA. THIS LOT IS PRODUCED BY NIGUSSE GEMEDA, THE INAUGURAL WINNER OF THE ETHIOPIA CUP OF EXCELLENCE 2020. HIS COMPANY, KARAMO COFFEE, IS LOCATED IN KARAMO AGENA IN THE BURA REGION OF SIDAMA, WHERE COFFEE IS GROWN AT ALTITUDES OF 2,200 TO 2,400 METERS.

FOR KARAMO COFFEE, WHICH HAS PREVIOUSLY ONLY USED THE NATURAL PROCESS, THIS BATCH REPRESENTS THEIR FIRST WASHED PROCESS LOT. FERMENTATION TAKES PLACE IN A LOW TEMPERATURE ENVIRONMENT FOR 48 HOURS, WITH THE WATER REPLACED EVERY 24 HOURS FOR A GENTLE, UNIFORM FERMENTATION.

THE CUP DISPLAYS A REFRESHING FRUITINESS REMINISCENT OF GRAPES AND RED APPLES, WITH A BALANCED AND PLEASANT FINISH.
