ethiopia chelchele is a washed single origin from the yirgacheffe region, roasted by little victories coffee roasters in elgin. the washed process scrubs away the fruit before drying, which pulls the cup toward clarity and brightness rather than body. expect sharp citrus across lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, a crisp red apple note, and a dry, tea-like finish with jasmine and black tea running through the background. it rewards brew methods that highlight clean acidity and delicate florals, so pour-over or filter brewing will show it at its best. keep water around 90-93°c to avoid flattening the top end.
common questions

How is Ethiopia Chelchele grown and processed?

How should I brew Ethiopia Chelchele?
