this is a washed ethiopian coffee from the sidamo region, roasted by dusty ape coffee roastery and coffee bar. the washed process strips the fruit before drying, which tends to produce a clean, bright cup, and that shows here in the tasting profile: lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest give it a sharp, acidic edge, while cocoa rounds out the finish with a little weight. it suits brew methods that let acidity come forward, such as pour-over or aeropress, where clarity is easier to control. grind medium-fine and use water around 93°c to avoid pushing the citrus notes into sourness.
common questions
What does Ethiopia Sidamo taste like?
expect lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest on the brighter end, with cocoa providing some depth toward the finish. the washed process keeps the cup clean, so those flavors read clearly without much fruit pulp or ferment character behind them.
How is Ethiopia Sidamo grown and processed?
this coffee comes from the sidamo region of ethiopia and is processed using the washed method, meaning the coffee cherry is removed before the beans are dried. washed processing generally emphasizes a coffee's inherent acidity and clarity over sweetness or body.
How should I brew Ethiopia Sidamo?
brew methods that highlight clarity, such as pour-over or aeropress, work well here given the clean, citrus-forward profile from the washed process. keep water temperature around 93°c and dial in your grind to balance the bright acidity without tipping into sourness.
