Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Idido

Idido is part of Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union or YCFCU.  This network encompasses 28 cooperatives and 38,000 farmers.  Idido comprises more than 1,000 of those members.  Each member represents a small farm that grows coffee as well as bananas, vegetables, and other shade trees.  Previously the Ethiopian Government required coffee to be sold on an exchange with only designations by relatively large geographic area and cleanliness of preparation.  In recent years the government has allowed for certain cooperatives and washing stations to bypass the exchange in order to maintain partnerships and receive a premium for their coffee.

This lot is an exquisite example of a washed process coffee from Yirgacheffe and is a superstar in just about any brew method.

Flavor Notes:  Tropical fruits, Lime, Bright & Sweet
