## What the Brand Says

> Queen of Sheba is our washed community coffee from Sidama Bensa, produced in collaboration with Daye Bensa. Cherries are sourced from smallholder farms across the highlands, growing at elevations reaching up to 2,100 masl. The altitude and cool climate slow cherry maturation, supporting clarity, sweetness, and structure in the cup. At the washing station, lots are carefully fermented, washed, and dried to preserve a clean, tea like profile. The goal is consistency and precision rather than exaggeration. In the cup, Queen of Sheba shows bright lemon, blueberry, and a grounded black tea finish. A composed expression of washed Ethiopian coffee, shaped by high elevation farming and thoughtful processing.
