ethiopia coffee
by calico coffee · london, uk
you'll taste lemon before stone fruit. this is ethiopia bishan fugu heirloom g1 - washed, a washed ethiopia from calico coffee.
this coffee tastes of lemon and stone fruit with jasmine and floral aromatics, finishing with a black tea, tea-like quality. the washed process keeps the cup clean and the acidity precise.
it is grown in the guji region of ethiopia using heirloom varieties and processed as a washed grade 1 coffee, meaning the fruit is removed before drying to produce a clean, clarity-focused cup.
filter brewing methods such as pour over or drip suit this coffee well, as they highlight the clean acidity, floral notes, and tea-like character that the washed process produces.
you notice the filter bar first, hand-built and low, the kind of thing someone who trained as an architect would obsess over. junchao jonny huang did exactly that before placing third at the 2023 uk brewers cup and opening calico on lower marsh near waterloo. dark wood, soft light, no wasted gestures. huang roasts some of the coffee himself, sources his own green, and still brings in guest roasters when it makes sense. every drink comes with an origin card. considered without being precious about it.
