Ethiopia Sidama Deri Kochoha

Fresh out of the roaster: Ethiopia Sidama Deri Kochoha. It's available on the siphon, and also as Whole Bean coffee (as of now.)


This lot of Sidama region coffee comes from Deri Kochoha station. The station has approximated 600 contributing farmers, and produces approximately 2 containers per year. They use a traditional pulping, fermentation, and drying methods to produce an exceptionally sweet and clean coffee.

In the cup it's fig, buttery brown sugar and cinnamon notes right off the bat with a black tea finish. As it cools, hints of wheat bread come through and the flavors change to Meyer lemon and soft citrus notes with warm caramel and orange blossom highlights.

Layered. Complex. Sweet. A favorite of 2012!
