Coffee Story
Keffa, the coffee-producing region in Ethiopia, is also known as Kaffa. It is the very place where the legendary shepherd Kaldi is said to have discovered the coffee fruit. It's said that the word "coffee" originated from Keffa. This coffee from Keffa, Ethiopia, known for being the birthplace of the Arabica variety and steeped in the story of Kaldi, immediately made me eager to taste it upon hearing the news of its release.
In Dambi, about 2,500 small-scale farmers gather to harvest cherries, which are then processed at Dinkalem Ademe's processing station. They are often referred to as "garden farmers" because most of them grow coffee trees in gardens near their homes or harvest cherries from naturally occurring coffee trees in their living areas.
You can also sense a variety of fragrances, such as refreshing and diverse fruit scents like passion fruit, peach, and orange, as well as fragrances reminiscent of Earl Grey or herbal tea. Since Ethiopian coffee is in season now, I think it would be a good idea to try it before the autumn passes.

What is the best consumed date for coffee beans? Are your coffee beans freshly-roasted?
We recommend 7-21 days after the initial roasting date to allow for degassing to take place, allowing the flavour of the coffee compounds to be properly extracted. Within the first seven days, roasted coffee beans are still releasing carbon dioxide and degassing. If not degassed properly, it will hinder the extraction of ground coffee particles during the brewing process.
What are the differences between Single Origins and Blends?
Single origin beans are harvested from a single producer, crop, or region, usually delivering a taste profile that is unique to its origins. Blends are a mixture of a few single origin beans, producing a rich and expressive flavor profile.
How do I choose coffee that is suitable for me?
Find the right tasting notes. These are often identified by our barista during cupping sessions. Some coffee are more floral and fruity while some are more chocolaty and nutty. As you drink more coffee, you will figure out which notes you would like the most.
