girma sentayehu is a single-origin ethiopian coffee from yirgacheffe, roasted by giraffe coffee roasters. yirgacheffe is one of ethiopia's most celebrated growing regions, known for producing coffees with sharp, clean acidity. this one delivers on that reputation, with tasting notes of lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest that sit at the bright, fruit-forward end of the spectrum. it suits brewing methods that preserve clarity and acidity, so a pour-over or filter approach will keep those citrus characteristics defined rather than muddied. if you enjoy coffees that are sharp and clean rather than heavy or sweet, this is a strong choice.

about giraffe coffee roasters

single-origin filter coffee is where to start here, something slow and considered that gives you a clearer read on what giraffe is actually doing as a roaster. rotterdam's ratelaarweg sits in a quieter industrial pocket of the city, far enough from the tourist-facing centre that the people coming in are mostly there because they want to be, not because the map led them. that regulars keep returning says something about consistency, which for a roaster is the hard part, the part that separates a good week from a good year. you don't stumble onto ratelaarweg 11 by accident. when you do make it out there, order the filter before anything else.
