Ethiopian Yirgacheffe - Organic Fair Trade- East Africa

This is a fantastic light to medium-bodied coffee simply full of unique flavors, and Organic Fair Trade too!

As you sip this coffee, enjoy the smooth "mouthfeel" and notice the fruity accents (our favorite aspect of this coffee). The lingering floral overtones and characteristics are apparent even before you brew this special bean. A simply wonderful coffee for those who enjoy a truly elegant cup!

This "Gran Cru" coffee of Ethiopia was awarded "Best Cup" by Ken Davids.

Ethiopia is an East Africa Country that is bordered by the Red Sea to the north, and Kenya to the south. It is about three times the size of California with a population of 48 million people. Quality Ethiopian coffee is grown on plantations in the southern part of the country at elevations between 3,575 feet and 6,825 feet. The soil is very fertile and the rains are ideal for the coffee plant.

The origins of coffee can be traced right back to Ethiopia. According to legend, coffee was discovered sometime in the 7th century by Kaldi, an Ethiopian goat herder - well, actually by his goats.
One day, Kaldi noticed his goats eating on a strange red berry and observed that were acting extremely energetic. Tired himself, he decided to try some of the berries and, to his amazement, his fatigue vanished! He found himself running and jumping with his goats, free of worry. News of his (well, ok, his goats?) discovery traveled quickly through the villages and tribes, and thus the journey of coffee began.

Today you too can enjoy the wonderful Ethiopian coffee discovered by Kaldi - but without the goats.

Additionally, the solid gold plating is neutral which eliminates every negative influence to taste resulting in an absolutely pure cup of coffee!
