Easily one of our most popular beans. They're super floral, with unmistakable notes of jasmine flowers and blueberries. Usually, the darker you roast a coffee, floral accents go up in smoke. But with this Sidamo, you can detect jasmine all the way up the roasting profile. Usually, the darker you roast a coffee, floral accents go up in smoke. But with Sidamo, you can detect jasmine all the way up the roasting profile. These beans are SHB (Strictly Hard Bean), meaning the plants that mothered these beans struggled to survive at an elevation above 2,200M (7,000 FT). The few berries that did manage to mature, did so very slowly, absorbing nutrients from the soil and slowly producing more complex flavour profiles. Coffee Processing When the coffee cherries are fully ripened they’re picked and immediately dried, without removing the pulp, in raised beds using a technique called Natural Processing. Natural process coffees are more eco-friendly as they don’t create acidic waste water, but this technique is very finicky. Skill is required to rotate the shrivelling berries by hand for an entire month to ensure an even drying process that prevents mold and rot from spoiling the crop. The effort is well worth it though: a rich, densely fruity cup that tastes brilliantly sweet. You may want to skip the sugar with this one.
