ethiopia coffee
by rosetta roastery cafe (bree street) · cape town, south africa
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is negele gorbitu anaerobic natural, ethiopia, an anaerobic ethiopia from rosetta roastery cafe (bree street).
this coffee leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, supported by stone fruit, jasmine, and floral undertones. the anaerobic natural process pushes the fruit and floral character to the foreground.
the coffee comes from the yirgacheffe region of ethiopia and is processed using an anaerobic natural method, meaning the whole cherries ferment in sealed tanks without oxygen before being dried with the fruit still on the bean.
filter methods such as pour-over or aeropress suit this coffee well, preserving the delicate citrus and floral notes that define it. keep water temperature around 92-94°c and grind medium-fine to let the brighter qualities come through cleanly.
you can smell the history in rosetta's cramped bree street space before you even order. the beans here aren't just south african - they're obsessively sourced from farms most cape town roasters ignore, then roasted in batches small enough that your barista probably remembers pulling each one from the drum. the espresso hits with that mineral tang you only get from properly developed african beans. thick crema that clings to your cup long after the last sip. this is what local coffee tastes like when someone actually cares about doing it right.
