From BIG SUR

For this year’s Ethiopian selections, we generally leaned toward coffees from the Guji region. However, this washed Masincho from Sidama consistently stood out in every round of blind cupping—truly eye-opening.

The floral aroma is light and airy, delicate yet lingering, accompanied by a pronounced citrus character—reminiscent of jasmine or perhaps lemon blossom. The fruit profile is vibrant and expressive, evoking both the sensation of biting into fresh fruit and the sweetness of fruit candy. The acidity remains lively and well-structured throughout, complemented by the freshness of newly harvested green tea, leading to a long, elegant finish.

Masincho is named after a large tree growing at the center of the Yaye washing station. Testi chose this name to symbolize the deep roots and strong foundation of Yaye. When compared side by side with other coffees from the same station, Masincho has consistently impressed us in every cupping session.
