If Tea were Coffee
If tea were coffee, it would be called Yirgacheffe. This Ethiopian Washed Arabica is our highlight for all those who appreciate fine and complex aromas. Mild and harmonious, this single origin will win you over with its subtle vanilla and blackberry notes.
Harvested and Processed by Hand
The Koke Cooperative is located in the heart of the renowned Yirgacheffe coffee region in Ethiopia, the namesake of this special Arabica. As part of the Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (YCFCU), it represents around 1,200 farmers. Koke has made it her goal to improve the living conditions of the local community. For example, it invests in the renovation of schools and the provision of learning materials on site. The coffee cherries are harvested and sorted by hand by the farmers. In the washing station, they are separated from the pulp, washed and then dried in the sun with regular and careful turning - this gives the coffee its clear, fine taste profile. A special highlight? The cooperative attaches great importance to ensuring that the beans can be fully traced: from the time of harvest to the end of the preparation process.
Traditional Cultivation in the Interests of Nature Conservation
Yirgacheffe is grown in shady forest gardens in the south-western mountains of Ethiopia. Thanks to the cool, high-altitude climate, the coffee cherries ripen more slowly and have more time to develop their characteristic, fruity and spicy flavor. Traditional cultivation in forest gardens also has advantages in terms of nature conservation: the plants have a higher natural resistance to pests, plant and species diversity is preserved and the method of cultivation provides natural protection against erosion.
Yirgacheffe is like a quiet favorite song – you don't hear it, you feel it. Mild, harmonious, and complex, with a gentle vanilla flavor and notes of ripe berries, this Ethiopian washed coffee provides relaxation – every day.
Tips for Preparation
All types of filter coffee preparation are suitable for preparing Yirgacheffe coffee. When prepared with a hand filter, fruity-sweet nuances tend to come to the fore, while a French press, for example, emphasizes floral-spicy aromas. Yirgacheffe is best enjoyed pure, as this allows its flavor to develop optimally.
Koke Cooperative
The Koke Cooperative is located in the heart of the prized Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia and brings together around 1,970 farmers. It is part of the larger Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (YCFCU) and is strongly committed to the local community - for example through school renovations. Growing coffee in shady forest gardens protects nature and allows every bean to be fully traceable.
