Ethiopia Yirgacheff Huke Premium Washed G1

This fully washed Yirgacheff Premium G1 is fully hand picked and sorted. The washed processed coffees are depulped within 8 hours after picking and the mucilage-covered parchment is submerged in water for a 36 to 48 hour fermentation, depending on the conditions. 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 parchment.

After fermenting and washing, this premium coffee is laid out on raised beds under a shade net for 5 to 7 days until the moisture content is between 11 and 12%. The coffee is then moved inside a nearby warehouse for final homogenization and resting until it is ready to be transported to the dry mill.

The coffee is finished at the Huke Washing Station owned and operated by the Yonis Family. The final cup is more delicate that its counterpart (Yirgacheff Huke Premium Natural G1).

Fragrance and aroma of creme brulee and lemon grass. Notes of apple, blueberry, lemon, raspberry, sweet tea and white sugar. Aftertaste of baking spices, vanilla, cinnamon and black tea. Mild lemon-forward acidity with malic and citric acids noted. Creamy mouthfeel and medium bodied. Overall complex. Roasted light to protect its sweetness and balance.

Tasting Notes: Apple, Blueberry, Lemon, Raspberry, Sweet Tea, White Sugar.
