ethiopia coffee
by bono coffee roasters · calgary, canada
you'll taste jasmine before floral. this is walia, a washed ethiopia from bono coffee roasters.
walia has a tea-like, earthy profile with jasmine and floral notes and a distinct black tea quality. the dark roast brings depth and body rather than bright acidity.
walia is sourced from ethiopia and processed using the washed method, meaning the coffee cherry is removed before the beans are dried. this approach typically produces a cleaner cup with more defined flavors.
as a dark roast, walia suits espresso or french press, where its earthy, tea-like body can fully express itself. if brewing filter, keep water temperature closer to 90 celsius to avoid over-extracting the darker roast characteristics.
manhattan road southeast isn't where you'd expect to find coffee that makes you pause mid-sip, but bono coffee roasters proves expectations wrong daily. the 4.7-star rating from 225 reviews tells part of the story. the rest unfolds in how they handle beans, with the kind of attention that transforms morning routines into small rituals. regulars don't just come for caffeine. they come because someone here understands that good coffee requires patience, proper temperatures, and zero shortcuts. each cup carries weight, the kind of richness that makes chain coffee taste like brown water afterward. independent roasters like this survive because they remember something simple: coffee should taste like the beans matter, not like it rolled off an assembly line in another province.
