ethiopia coffee
by substance café · paris, france
this is ethiopia gesha village lot 137, a natural ethiopia from substance café.
specific tasting notes were not provided for this lot, but gesha naturals from ethiopia typically show pronounced floral and fruit-forward character with a full body due to the natural process. lot 137 is a single traceable lot, which often signals a carefully separated, distinct cup profile.
it is grown in ethiopia using the gesha varietal and processed naturally, meaning the whole coffee cherry is dried before the fruit is removed, which shapes the final flavor of the bean.
no specific brew method or roast level was listed, but gesha naturals generally perform well as pour-over or filter brews, which tend to preserve the varietal's complexity. a medium-fine grind and water around 90-93°c is a reliable starting point.
you book a time, you show up, and joachim morceau decides what you're drinking. that's the deal at substance café. no takeaway, no menu to scroll, just coffee roasted on site and a host who competed at the french brewers cup twice, once pulling a runner-up finish with a washed biodynamic geisha. the lots he sources are small, sometimes unrepeatable. he's not chasing volume. he's slowing you down long enough to actually hear where the coffee came from.
