common questions
What does Ethiopia (Sidama) taste like?
it tastes of lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, with jasmine and floral notes running through it. the natural process adds a fruit-forward sweetness that sits underneath the bright, clean acidity.
How is Ethiopia (Sidama) grown and processed?
the coffee is grown in the sidama region of ethiopia and processed using the natural method, meaning the whole cherry is dried before the fruit is removed. this approach tends to produce fuller body and pronounced fruit character compared to washed coffees.
How should I brew Ethiopia (Sidama)?
a filter or pour over method works well here, as it preserves the citrus brightness and floral delicacy. aim for a water temperature around 92-94°c and a medium-fine grind to avoid muting the lemon and jasmine notes.
about monks coffee roasters
some coffee shops chase trends. monks coffee roasters on bilderdijkstraat perfects fundamentals instead. you can taste the difference in how they handle every bean, from the first crack during roasting to that final sip that makes you close your eyes for just a moment. regulars don't come back for instagram moments. they return because someone here actually cares about extraction times and grind consistency. the 4.7 rating from nearly a thousand reviews tells the real story. when amsterdammers consistently rate your coffee that highly, you're doing something right. maybe it's the way they let each roast develop its own character. or how the baristas actually listen when you ask for something specific. this isn't the kind of place that serves coffee as an afterthought to pastries and wifi. walk along bilderdijkstraat and you'll smell the roasting before you see the sign. that's intentional.
