- Variety: 74110, 71458 - Country: Ethiopia - Region: Guji - Process: Washed - Altitude: 2000 MASL - Harvest: 25/26 - Producer: Habtamu Fikadu - Roast Level: Light In the cup We taste stonefruits, reminding us of white champagne peaches. This coffee has a white florality and juicy red fruit sweetness like apple and pomegranate. It has a light body and a sparkling finish. Clean Funky Terroir Experimental About The Producer Habtamu Fikadu Aga is the general manager of Kuri Mountain Coffee, an exporting company in Ethiopia. He works alongside Aaga Dinsa to oversee the production of landrace varietals, such as 74110 and 74112. This specific washed lot comes from 140 smallholders in the Chelbesa washing station area. Processing At the company’s washing stations, cherries are pulped and undergo a submerged fermentation lasting 48–72 hours depending on temperature. After washing, the parchment rests in water for another 12 hours before being dried on raised beds for 10–12 days. This careful and consistent method underpins the quality across all of Habtamu’s lots. Variety 74110 is a locally selected subvariety of Ethiopian Heirloom, developed in the 70s at the Jimma Agricultural Research Center (JARC) for resistance to the coffee berry disease. The prefix ‘74’ indicates that the selection and cataloguing occurred in 1974. The subvariety 74110 was selected from an original “mother tree” in the Bishari village in the Oromia region. The trees are short and compact, with small leaves and cherries. 74112 is a varietal from the Metu Bishari selections made in the forests of the Illubabor Zone in western Ethiopia in 1974. The Jimma Agricultural Research Center (JARC) selected it (alongside a few others)for its resistance to coffee berry disease. Transparency Imported Crop to Cup We Paid $16.17 USD/kg Roasted Costs $21.59 USD/kg This is our third year working with Habtamu Fikadu and his coffees from Chelbesa. This coffee is sparkling and floral that we best describe as white champagne peaches, white florals and lime.
