Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Fair Trade Organic Coffee

The Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Fair Trade Organic Coffee is vibrant and intensely aromatic with fruity and subtle earthy flavours. This is a lively 100% arabica coffee for those who can appreciate a complex flavourful cup.

Ethiopia is perhaps best known as a poor country but it actually produces some of the most unique sought-after crops in the world. Agriculture makes up 41% of its' GDP with coffee making up the largest portion at 28% handily beating out any other country in Africa.

The elevation of Ethiopia qualifies the Yirgacheffe as Strictly High Grown (SHG) / Strictly Hard Bean (SHB). These higher elevations means that the coffees take longer to grow delivering more nutrients to the coffee bean and allowing it to develop more flavour.
