walia medium is a washed ethiopian coffee roasted to a medium level by bono coffee roasters. the washed process removes the fruit before drying, which tends to produce cleaner, more defined cup character, and that shows here in a profile built around jasmine, floral aromatics, black tea, and a gentle earthiness. it drinks more like a refined tea than a heavy coffee, making it well suited to filter methods that let those lighter, delicate qualities come through. keep water temperature moderate, around 90-93°c, and avoid over-extraction to preserve the floral and tea-like qualities.

common questions

What does Walia Medium taste like?

walia medium has jasmine and broader floral aromatics alongside black tea and a tea-like character, with a mild earthiness underneath. it is a lighter, more delicate cup rather than a bold or fruity one.

How is Walia Medium grown and processed?

it is grown in ethiopia and uses a washed process, meaning the coffee cherry is removed before the beans are dried, which produces a cleaner, more defined flavour compared to natural or honey processing.

How should I brew Walia Medium?

filter methods such as pour over or aeropress work well for this medium roast, as they highlight the floral and tea-like qualities without masking them. keep brew time controlled and avoid very high water temperatures to prevent the delicate jasmine and black tea notes from turning bitter.
