- Fragrance of florals and yuzu with an aroma of fresh pear. Cup has clear notes of fresh peach, white tea, and chamomile. The coffee has a medium, tea-like body and a bright complex acidity. The citric, lactic, and malic acidity of the coffee is balanced with a white sugar sweetness. The coffee finishes with notes of florals and oolong tea.
- For this dense Ethiopian coffee, we recommend that you start with a moderate charge temperature and an extended drying time. This will provide you with more even heat penetration. Use a high heat application through Maillard and into caramelization to develop the complex acidity and retain as much of the volatile florals as possible.
The Halo Beriti washing station was established in 2012 in the Gedeb district
The station pays farmers a premium for quality cherry and offers credit along with training on the practices that help improve both quality and yield.
Most farms in the area run close to 1.5 hectares, grown as garden coffee alongside other crops, and without chemical fertilizer. One of those farmers is Gebeyehu Derso, who manages 3.5 hectares in the Halo Beriti area, with 3 hectares planted to coffee and the rest given over to cereals for the household. Coffee is the family's main source of income, and it supports a household of 12, most of whom are in school, aside from the three eldest, who now work alongside their parents at harvest time.
