Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Washed Gr. 1 – Worka Chelbesa – Danche

Only 17 pounds left! 
Crisp, clean and sweet; this Ethiopian cup is a bit more delicate than most. Light to medium roasting recommended but a tasty cup from light to dark. Lighter roasts will have some decent brightness, lemony with some  grapefruit like citric tones. A floral cup with some awesome hints of jasmine in the aromatics.  The lighter tones pull some balance with the classic tea like chocolaty undertone, traditional darker notes from the Yirgacheffe region.

Medium roasts really mellow out the acidity and reduce the citric/floral tone, creates a bit more body and a much more recognizable chocolaty factor. A very smooth, balanced and rich cup with exotic highlights. Darker roast burn out all the fruity and acidic notes, gets a little smoky roasty with strong bakers chocolate & spice tones.

Description

Located in Gedeo zone of the Gedeb district, Worka Chelbesa is one of the finest coffee producing areas within the famous Gedeb Woreda. Known for its dense layered semi-forest vegetation structure with false banana trees providing shade for coffee plantings, Chelbesa is a great example of an ideal coffee growing envirionment.

SNAP Specialty Coffee built their new wet mill in 2019 in a small hamlet called Danche within the Chelbesa Village with the goal of purchasing exclusively red cherries from the nearby farmers. Their ambition became a reality after completion of the project. The fermentation tanks of the wet mill were constructed from ceramic for its ability to retain heat, which helps bring clarity to the coffee by increasing speed up fermentation.

Tasting Notes: Crisp, clean and sweet; this Ethiopian cup is a bit more delicate than most. Light to medium roasting recommended but a tasty cup from light to dark. Lighter roasts will have some decent brightness, lemony with some  grapefruit like citric tones. A floral cup with some awesome hints of jasmine in the aromatics.  The lighter tones pull some balance with the classic tea like chocolaty undertone, traditional darker notes from the Yirgacheffe region.

A very smooth, balanced and rich cup with exotic highlights. Darker roast burn out all the fruity and acidic notes, gets a little smoky roasty with strong bakers chocolate & spice tones.

Roasting Notes: Most will like this cup on the lighter spectrum of roasts, a nice solid medium roast will please almost every palate. A bit chaff heavy and will roast a bit two toned, slowing down the roast a bit will help even out those lighter roast points. Very smooth and defined before 2nd crack, into 2nd crack will add some bitterness.
