ethiopia coffee
by saigon coffee roastery · ho chi minh city, vietnam
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is ethiopia yirgacheffe washed, a honey ethiopia from saigon coffee roastery.
expect lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest up front, with jasmine and floral aromatics, and a honey and honeycomb sweetness in the finish. the overall profile leans bright and fragrant rather than heavy or chocolatey.
this coffee comes from the yirgacheffe region of ethiopia and is processed using the honey method, meaning some of the fruit mucilage is left on the bean during drying, adding sweetness and body compared to a fully washed coffee.
filter or pour over brewing suits this coffee well, as it preserves the delicate floral and citrus character. keep your water temperature around 90 to 93 degrees celsius and use a medium grind to avoid muting the lighter notes.
your first sip of saigon coffee roastery's da lat highland arabica hits different than anything you've tasted from vietnam's central highlands. the beans carry that mineral edge from volcanic soil, but their roasting pulls out notes of dark chocolate and tamarind that most roasters miss completely. walk into their ho chi minh city space and you'll smell those da lat beans crackling in the drum roaster, releasing oils that make the air thick and sweet. this isn't your typical robusta-heavy vietnamese coffee. it's what happens when local knowledge meets serious technique.
