äthiopien shale is a washed ethiopian coffee from yirgacheffe, roasted by cabana coffee roasters. yirgacheffe is one of ethiopia's most established coffee-growing regions, known for producing clean, clearly defined cups through the washed process, which removes the fruit before drying and tends to emphasize clarity and brightness. the washed process here should deliver a structured, tea-like body with well-defined acidity. brew it as filter, pour over, or aeropress to keep those clean characteristics at the front, using water around 92-94°c and a medium-fine grind.
