Yirgacheffe itself is a small town with approximately 20,000 people. The three neighboring small regions—Wenago, Kochere, and Gelena Abaya—produce coffee with flavors almost identical to Yirgacheffe, so they are also classified under the Yirgacheffe regional category. Both culturally and geographically, Yirgacheffe is similar to the nearby Sidamo region, but Yirgacheffe seems to be especially favored with unique natural conditions. Top-quality Yirgacheffe coffee features floral notes, bright citrus acidity, lemon-toned aromas, and a silky smooth mouthfeel.

Compared to the traditionally natural-processed Harar region, natural-processed Yirgacheffe is not as common. As the region where Ethiopia's first washed processing station is located, Yirgacheffe is more familiar to coffee enthusiasts for its elegant lemon and citrus characteristics, particularly in its washed processing method.

Washed-processed coffee flavors are less likely to have wild characteristics, possessing pure and refreshing qualities that suit light roast levels. This washed Ethiopian coffee can achieve the highest G1 grade, indicating very few defects.

Introduction

This coffee comes from a single farm in Ethiopia, processed by the Worka Cooperative. Alemayehu Alako Farm is a member of the Worka Cooperative.

The Worka Cooperative is located in the southern part of Gedeb district, established in 2005, and joined the famous Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmers Cooperative Union (YCFCU) in the same year. It is known for producing high-quality natural-processed Yirgacheffe coffee. The Worka Cooperative has approximately 300 coffee farmers as members. YCFCU was established in 2002 and includes 26 other cooperatives, serving over 45,000 coffee farmers.

Flavor: Distinct floral notes, both dry and wet aromas have rich citrus characteristics. The front features lemon, kumquat, white grape juice, and other diverse flavors. The middle to back sections showcase rich citrus sweetness, a soda-like rich sweetness, with a distinct personality that stands out—quite rare and exceptional.
