chelchele is a washed ethiopian coffee from the yirgacheffe region, roasted by axil coffee roasters in hawthorn. the washed process strips the fruit before drying, which tends to produce a clean, bright cup, and that shows here in the citrus-forward character, lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, with a floral jasmine quality sitting underneath. blueberry adds a soft fruit layer, while milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and almond round out the finish with some body. it suits brew methods that highlight clarity and acidity, so pour-over or filter work well to let the citrus and floral notes come through without muddying them.
