Dear coffee lovers,
We are very proud to announce that our very first coffee box was sent yesterday! In this box you have a selection of three coffees roasted by Love Coffee Roasters from Lund, Sweden.
We have selected three Ethiopian coffees, two washed and one natural. The vibrant and crisp Borboya, Knots that with its freshness and flowery notes reminds us about a beautiful day in spring, and finally Sasaba - a bomb of strawberries and blueberries.
Borboya
Origin: Ethiopia, Yirgacheffe
Region: Oromia
Producer: Borboya Washing Station
Process: Washed
Variety: Mixed heirloom
Altitude: 1950 masl
Season 2015
Soil: Clay soil
Borboya’s washing station is situated in Yirgacheffe. It is an incredibly clear coffee and with its wonderful notes of citrus and flower it was an easy pick.
Knots
Origin: Ethiopia, Yirgacheffe
Zone: Gedebe
Producer: Knots Washing Station
Process: Washed
Variety: Mixed heirloom
Altitude: 1900 masl
Season 2014
Soil: Red clay soil
About 50 km from Yirgacheffe you find the valley where Knot’s station is located. The valley has its own microclimate and all the related farmers live in the area, close to the station. To make sure that no water goes to waste when washing the coffee, the leftover water is returned back to the lagoon in the area. It’s a classic Yirgacheffe with notes of bergamot and citrus.
Sasaba
Origin: Ethiopia, Sidamo, Oromia
Zone: Guji
Producer: Sasaba Washing Station
Process: Natural
Variety: Mixed heirloom
Altitude: 1800 masl
Season 2015
Soil: Clay soil
Sasaba is situated in the region of Sidamo. This coffee is a natural processed coffee: full-bodied, sweet and with loads of berry flavours. When you get to taste it, you’ll definitely see why we chose this coffee.
We hope you will enjoy these coffees as much as we do, they are absolutely amazing. We would like to thank all of you who subscribed this month!
Next month we’re shipping coffee from Drop Coffee Roasters who are pioneers when it comes to light roasted coffee. If you’re not already a subscriber, be sure to subscribe now!
