ethiopia coffee
by terminal 3 coffee roasters - lake shore · etobicoke, canada
you'll taste lemon before stone fruit. this is ethiopia - washed yirgacheffe, a washed ethiopia from terminal 3 coffee roasters - lake shore.
it tastes like lemon and stone fruit, with the brightness and clarity that comes from the washed process. the light roast keeps those flavors clean and distinct rather than pushing toward caramel or chocolate.
the coffee comes from the yirgacheffe region of ethiopia and is processed using the washed method, meaning the fruit is removed from the bean before it is dried. this produces a cleaner, more defined cup compared to natural or honey-processed coffees from the same region.
because this is a light roast, brew methods that offer control over temperature and flow, like pour-over or aeropress, will best highlight the lemon and stone fruit notes. avoid very high water temperatures, which can push the brightness into sharpness.
