## Description

These Ethiopian beans are hand-picked, which makes the quality rank high amongst other coffees. Processed through the wet-processing method, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe's beans are fermented for over 72 hours after having their fruit and pulp removed by the use of natural enzymes. This process allows the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe to absorb the sugars in the coffee fruit, creating a stronger full-body flavor in comparison to the dry-method of processing coffee. Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee beans are known for having a warm zing, which makes this coffee bean distinctive enough to rank as one of the finest. However, what makes this African coffee bean stand out is its resonant finish – a highly-flavored mix that does not overpower with an earthy taste. If you are looking for a taste of coffee history, the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe beans have everything your palate could ask for! Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Coffees are for the most part still a wild non-cultivated coffee. The cup is characterized by a citrus and floral quality with full body and an exotic earthy nature. We roast this bean at medium to medium dark. Our current batch is truly magnificent. A very complete lush and rich taste. If you must buy only one coffee from us go with this Ethiopian Yirgacheffe. You will not be disappointed. This cup of soft, fragrant coffee has a distinctive flavor that is both exotic and classic. This delicious gourmet coffee is produced in the region of Yirga Cheffe, one of the most distinguished regions of Africa. This Ethiopian coffee is wet-processed, giving it a medium intensity of spice and herb flavors. This is why we are very confident that when you buy freshly roasted Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee you will be treating yourself to one of the most distinctive coffees we have to offer. Roast instructions: roast this bean at medium to medium dark.

## Features

- Fragrant and floral with wine and fruit overtones, the Yirgacheffe is one of the most prized East African coffees.
- When roasted to a medium-dark level, it has a smooth medium body and long, lingering finish.
- Fresh Roasted Each Morning & Shipped in the Afternoon! Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee is one of the worlds most sought after coffees.
- Since Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee and it has embedded history as the first coffee growing region, it's no wonder these beans are incredibly popular.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ After practicing my brewing method, this is great, smooth, mellow, tasty coffee.
*by A***T on November 18, 2016*

I'm hoping someone who knows how to brew coffee better than I do will see this and advise me. I haven't given up, but I expected a coffee that is more interesting than this turned out to be for me. I use a French press and bottled water. I have been grinding the beans using a coarse setting, about 8 on a 10-point scale. That part seems ok, no silt or grounds coming through. I have been putting about 4 tablespoons into an 8 ounce French press. So it shouldn't be turning out weak. I wait about 3 or 4 minutes to pour the coffee. I do add some hot milk and a little bit of sugar. Compared to espresso I've had in Spain, for instance, this seems weak and nondescript. I know espresso is, of course, stronger than in the French press. So maybe I should try making espresso with this. The French press is faster and easier to use. I'd love to discover the bright fruity taste I've read about with regard to this coffee. If anyone can advise me, I will try again and come back and change my rating. But right now, whether it is my fault in brewing it or what, I'm just a bit disappointed.Update: I have changed my rating to a 5 star. I practiced my brewing for a few times and something got much better. I increased the amount of coffee to water and now use as many as 6 or 8 tablespoons for 8 ounces. I let it brew for only 2 to 3 minutes. It makes a strong enough coffee to mix with hot milk for a short latte for 2 people. And it is mellow and smooth and just very pleasant with a nice aroma. I think one has to play around with the different variables to come to what you like and how to make it like that consistently. But this is an excellent coffee.

*by J***N on November 10, 2017*

These are great beans. We ordered the light roast to try to preserve some of the subtle flavors, but I'm not sure if that worked as we had expected - the flavor notes include caramel and chocolate, and we're definitely not getting any berry or other fruit flavors. Still, we can tell that these are very high quality beans, and also very consistently sized. Nice even roast as well, so the folks at RhoadsRoast did a great job. It is noteworthy that the label they provided suggests a darker roast, more of a city roast instead of the light roast we got. The seller prepared and shipped this incredibly quickly, much faster than was quoted when we ordered, which we really appreciated. Overall, we got great, high-quality beans at a very reasonable price, roasted properly and promptly. We can't wait to order from this seller again, and might try some of their other beans or roasts.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes a good cup of joe with a pleasant aftertaste.
*by P***T on September 7, 2017*

Initially I was disappointed with this coffee after doing my first 1 lb roast. I previously tried a 1 lb roast from a different seller which I really liked but they didn't offer a 5 lb bag. I bought this and the first roast was not what I was expecting. I have since tried a second roast and this time the result was great. It would seem that even though it was the same bean from the same region the characteristics of the bean were quite different. After a bit of tinkering with my roast method I achieved the dark roast I was looking for. The aroma was completely different on the second batch. The first had what I can only describe as an earthy smell to it. While it was still a good coffee I was disappointed with it.I am happy to say now that I figured out how to roast it in my Behmor I am totally satisfied with it. I will be buying more of this down the road.
