ethiopia coffee
by unincorporated coffee roasters · los angeles, usa
expect blueberry. this is ismael aredo - kayon mountain - guji, ethiopia, a natural ethiopia from unincorporated coffee roasters.
this coffee leads with blueberry flavor, a character typical of naturally processed ethiopian coffees where the fruit dries on the bean. the natural process amplifies sweetness and fruit intensity in the cup.
it's grown in the guji region of ethiopia, a zone known for producing distinctive fruit-forward coffees. the beans are naturally processed, meaning they dry inside the whole coffee cherry rather than being washed clean before drying.
a pour-over or french press will highlight the blueberry notes clearly, giving you control over extraction to avoid muddying the fruit character. if you brew it as espresso, expect a sweet, fruit-forward shot rather than a traditional chocolatey profile.
