From SEY
This is our first release from the Gerbota site, high in the hills of Gedeo, Yirgacheffe. It is a very sweet and expressive representation of the profiles this region is known for. In the cup we find nectarine, bergamot, and wildflower honey.
ABOUT GERBOTA
This is our first year working with coffees from the Gerbota site. Introduced to us by our exporting partners, this lot stood out immediately on the cupping table with its clarity and character. We will be visiting Gerbota during the 2025/26 harvest next February and look forward to deepening our work and seeing what more is possible from this site.
ABOUT ETHIOPIAN LANDRACE
Ethiopia is widely acknowledged as where coffee originated, and its production continues to represent a significant part of the country’s economy. DNA testing has confirmed over 60 distinct varieties growing in Ethiopia, making it home to the most coffee biodiversity of any region in the world. Given the tradition of coffee production in Ethiopia and the political interworkings of the Ethiopian coffee trade, it is virtually impossible to get single variety coffee lots from Ethiopia. This is changing, albeit very slowly. Most Ethiopian coffees are blends of the many Ethiopian varieties, and referred to simply as 'Ethiopian Landrace'.
