    About this coffee

    A beautifully bright coffee from the farmers of the last remaining wild coffee forest - Yayu.

    The Yayu Coffee Forest Biosphere in Ethiopia is one of the last and most important remaining mountain forest fragments for the preservation of wild populations of Arabica Coffee (Coffea arabica), in the world. We've worked with the Darwin Institute and Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, in the area since 2015 to improve the quality of coffee and therefore income for farmers, enabling preservation and study of this unique biosphere.

    As an espresso, enjoy soft citrus acidity upfront, syrupy body, and notes of marzipan and dark chocolate. With a long lasting bourbon biscuit aftertaste. Brewed as filter the coffee has a tea-like quality and feels light on the tongue. It opens on a mild citrus-like acidity, displays flavours reminiscent of kumquat, sweet shortcrust pastry and brown sugar, and finishes on bittersweet notes of roasted cocoa beans.
