this is a light-roasted washed coffee from the yirgacheffe region of ethiopia, sourced by terminal 3 coffee roasters at their lake shore location. the washed process removes the fruit before drying, which strips back sweetness and lets the bean's natural character come through cleanly. expect bright lemon acidity alongside stone fruit, with the clarity typical of washed ethiopian coffees. the light roast preserves those delicate flavors, so it rewards brew methods that highlight acidity and aromatics, pour-over or aeropress with water around 90-93°c will give you the most definition in the cup.
