wamena is a coffee from the guji region of ethiopia, roasted by fika roasters. guji is known for producing distinctly floral and fruit-forward coffees, and wamena reflects that character, with jasmine and hibiscus florals alongside a caramel sweetness that gives it some body and balance. it suits brewing methods that let delicate aromatics come through clearly, such as pour over or filter, where the floral top notes have room to express themselves without being muted by pressure or heavy extraction. grind fresh and use water around 92, 94 degrees celsius to avoid flattening the florals.

wamena comes from the guji region of ethiopia, a highland area with a long tradition of coffee cultivation, though no specific processing method has been detailed for this lot.

How should I brew WAMENA?
