What the Brand Says
The word Elto translates to something akin to abundance. So it's fitting that this release from Sidama Bensa-based processing duo, Eliyas Dukamo and Atiklit Dejene, offers one of the most generous Ethiopian coffees we've ever tasted. That density of flavour is no accident. This selection of the Geisha-esque 74158 varietal grown by smallholders in Gango Village is given the royal treatment. After hand-harvesting and cleaning a red carpet of cherry is laid out on raised beds re-sorting to guarantee uniform ripeness. The chosen cherries are then fermented in sealed barrels for 48 hours before being spread out in very thin layers for bed drying over 21 days. Fragrant, refined and exceptional - find a bouquet of neroli and cedar, suceeded by a palate of litchi, melon and mango, with blueberry, rose and a finish of lemonade & muscat that lasts forever. - Producer: Eliyas Dukamo & Atiklet Dejene of Elto Coffee - Region: Gango Village, Bensa, Sidama - Variety: 74158 - Altitude: 2300-2400masl - Cupping Score: 90.5 - Process: Cherries are hand-picked, cleaned and dried on raised beds.
