FrontStreet Coffee - Introduction to Sun-dried Yirgacheffe Characteristics

Africa is a major coffee-producing continent, with famous producing countries including Ethiopia and Kenya, which enjoy very high recognition globally and are loved and pursued by many coffee enthusiasts.

Today, let's briefly discuss Yirgacheffe coffee. Speaking of Yirgacheffe, can you already feel the irresistible impulse within? The Yirgacheffe growing region is renowned worldwide and is a favorite among many coffee lovers. Whether it's washed, sun-dried, or the increasingly popular honey and anaerobic processing methods of recent years, each exhibits very distinctive characteristics.

The sun-dried processing of Yirgacheffe is also an indispensable method because sun-drying is a very ancient processing technique. The processing steps involve directly spreading the harvested coffee cherries on drying racks without any preliminary treatment for careful drying. This ancient processing method typically requires four continuous weeks. The processing is extremely rigorous, requiring manual turning at irregular intervals to avoid over-fermentation that could produce undesirable flavors.

Sun-dried Yirgacheffe exhibits a subtle fermented wine aroma, generating more fragrance and body. It is sweeter than washed varieties and has a fuller body. Grade G1 sun-dried Yirgacheffe possesses rich tropical fruit aromas, intense flavor, and hints of cocoa notes.

When tasting Yirgacheffe, first appreciate the aroma, then take a small sip to experience the fruit-like mouthfeel, and after swallowing, savor the sweetness of the aftertaste.

Briefly: Everything is just for sharing and spreading knowledge.
