Drima Zede: The Finest Natural Process Ethiopian Coffee

"Drima Zede" means "the best" in the local dialect. This coffee comes from Sidamo, Ethiopia, grown at altitudes of 1750-2000m. With soft, fertile soil, ideal temperature, humidity, and rainfall—combined with 90+'s unique natural processing method—this coffee achieves near-washed purity while highlighting the bean's inherent sweetness, making it a truly impressive natural-processed Yirgacheffe.

This Drima Zede Yirgacheffe is a specialized product series developed from 90+'s years of experience. Natural processing, an ancient method, typically makes it difficult to achieve pure flavors. However, with 90+'s technical support, Drima Zede uses hand-selected ripest coffee cherries, with meticulous constant stirring during the natural drying process to ensure uniformity. The result is an exceptionally transparent and pure taste, with significant changes between hot and cold serving, displaying captivating aromas of fruit, flowers, and oak barrels.

A unique green bean requires an experienced roaster who strictly controls the roasting process, ultimately allowing it to inherit the charming aroma characteristic of Ethiopian beans. Through careful small-batch roasting, the rounded and full flavors are preserved while emphasizing the bean's distinctive characteristics.

We have tested various brewing methods, and whether using pour-over or cold brew, you can perfectly experience the ultimate flavors and aromas of these beans. Orders are welcome for tasting.

What is Zhumang LEVEL UP 90+

Ethiopia's indigenous varieties grow in regions at altitudes of 1750-2000m with fertile soil and suitable temperatures. Combined with ideal rainfall conditions, Sidamo surpasses expectations for natural-processed beans. Natural-processed beans typically have better inherent sweetness but lack the clean brightness of washed beans.

However, Zhumang coffee, in addition to the inherent quality of the beans themselves, owes its excellence entirely to proper post-harvest processing, combined with constant temperature and humidity warehouses and hygienic environments. Finally, appropriate roasting creates this exceptional coffee.

90+ beans differ from specialty beans in their naming approach—they start with flavor concepts. "Zhumang" means 'Best approach' in the local language, inheriting the traditional natural process's captivating aroma while delivering round, full, rich fruit flavors that are exceptionally difficult to achieve in typical natural-processed beans.

Most natural-processed beans rarely achieve clean, bright tastes, but Zhumang possesses both the bright acidity of washed beans and the rich body of natural-processed beans, with floral and fruit aromas intertwining to create a complex and lingering mouthfeel.
