Fresh from the Bisbee Coffee Company Roaster: Organic Ethiopian Bean


The Bisbee Coffee Company Roast of the day is  our Organic Ethiopian beanThe dry grounds have a very sweet citrus and floral-laced quality, with a tenadam (rue) and a hint of fresh dill. The wet aroma has a unique blend of ginger and cinnamon, as well as the tenadam sweet herbal note I mentioned already, along with caramelized sugar. The cup is sweet and somewhat herbal, with fresh dill and lime, with honey-like sweetness. Sweet and rich, fruity, rummy, floral and tea-like, with good acidity.  From Oromia Coffee Farmers Union.


Certified organic Ethiopian coffee has only been available since 1999 when some producers were granted a waiver to bypass the government auction system. They can now sell direct to western importers through the cooperatives to which they belong, and cut out the services of two sets of buyers and an independent exporter to deal with the final processing. It also enables some of them to gain fair trade status, and receive a significant proportion of profits.
