Description

------- WARNING! You are looking at Unroasted Green Raw Beans ------ Ethiopia Sidama Ayla Shantawene Washed Stone Fruit • Citrus • Floral Cup Profile: This coffee opens with a vibrant mix of stone fruit and citrus, led by white peach, lemon-lime, and soft orange. The wet aroma leans expressive and layered, showing purple fruits like blackberry and grape alongside tropical sweetness and hints of florals. Hot, the cup is clean and structured with peach, light citrus, and a subtle herbal/botanical edge—think black tea, thyme, or rosemary adding complexity without overpowering. As the coffee cools, it becomes more aromatic and dynamic. Florals like lavender and violet emerge, paired with a mouth-watering acidity that lifts the cup. Stone fruit remains present, while the finish develops into a mix of soft spice (coriander-like), and a light dark chocolate bitterness. In cleaner brews, the profile stays crisp and articulate; with fines, the cup gains body and sweetness but becomes more rounded and slightly muddled, with a pie-like or baked-good character. Overall, this is a clean, fruit-forward coffee with layered florals, tea-like structure, and a balanced, refreshing acidity. It leans toward a classic washed Ethiopian profile with some modern expressive qualities depending on brew clarity. A clean and versatile cup that highlights stone fruit, citrus, and florals with a tea-like backbone. Best clarity comes in higher-extraction, low-fines brews where the acidity feels more defined and the florals shine. With more fines, it shifts toward a heavier, rounder, slightly dessert-like profile.

After most of the mucilage is consumed, the coffee is fully washed in canals with running water until the water is completely transparent and all of the mucilage is completely removed from the
