Here, high altitude and lower temperatures mean that coffee cherries ripen more slowly than is typical, resulting in excellent cup profiles that are sweet, bright, and sought-after. In fact, nearly everything about the coffee we are sharing with you today took place at a slower pace than we would typically expect, from its time spent on the tree to its extended stay at the Yaye washing station, one of the highest washing stations in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYaye processes coffee from smallholders throughout Arbegona, and this lot in particular is one of the loveliest representations of its unique terroir to date.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS |\u003c\/strong\u003e After being handpicked at peak ripeness and floated to remove lower-density beans, the coffee cherries are de-pulped and then separated again by density. Then, they are submerged in water for 36 hours of fermentation, before being spread out on raised beds to dry for 10-14 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis coffee speaks for itself, but the way it tastes is made all the more admirable when you find out that it spent more than a month longer than it should in transit, due to long detours to avoid pirate attacks on cargo ships near the horn of Africa. It held up beautifully throughout the extended journey, and these resilient little beans still showcase everything we know and love about that washed Ethiopian profile. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFloral like white flowers and citric like lemons, sipping this coffee is remarkably like enjoying a nice black tea.
