Description
Widely considered to be the birthplace of coffee, the forests of Ethiopia create the ideal growing conditions for the organic, shade-grown, fair trade-certified beans in this bag. Once harvested, the 100% Arabica coffee cherries are washed to remove the fruit from the beans; after they’re dried, the beans are given a medium dark roast to coax out their inherently sweet, floral aroma. Brew up a cup and the result is a medium-bodied coffee with a fruity, citrusy finish that’s sure to leave you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, no matter what the day may bring.
The nitrogen-flushed bag locks in freshness from roast to cup. Grind whole beans immediately before brewing for the best results. Delivered to your door across the U.S. and Canada by HIOOL GOODS.
