Ethiopia Single Origin specialty coffee. The flavor profile of Ethiopian coffee can vary depending on where it was grown. In general, it tends to have notes of fruit and spices, which may be due to the altitude at which they are grown or the way they are processed. Ethiopia is one of the countries that produces the best coffee beans. Ethiopian coffee beans are known for their intense taste and aroma. The coffee beans are dried naturally through a technique called "dry-process" that gives them a unique taste.
The coffees from the Sidamo region have a very special character and unique cup profile that justifies their consideration as some of the best coffees in the world. Ethiopia is considered the cradle of coffee and famous for being in the forest of the Kaffa region where wild Arabica coffee grows. In Ethiopia, a large number of farmers with a usually low production yield transport the coffee beans together and bring them to collection centers where washing stations are located, rather than processing the coffee beans with their own machinery. At washing stations, coffee beans are carefully sorted before being processed. After washing, the high moisture content of the beans must be reduced to about 12%, and this happens naturally, under the African sun, on the so-called "beds" or "drying tables".
