About this coffee

Country: Ethiopia Region: Guji Farm : Gemechu Shonora Processing: Washed Varietal: Kurume & local Cupping score: 86 / 100 Altitude : 2200 m a.s.l. ABOUT THE COFFEE This coffee from the Guji region presents a crisp, complex flavor profile with notes of blueberry, vanilla, and lemongrass, characteristic of Ethiopia's high-altitude crops. It is created in cooperation with Gemechu Shonora and local producers, from whom we have been ordering coffee since 2024. We recommend it primarily for filter brewing methods, where its complexity and delicacy are most pronounced. The coffee comes from the Oromia, Guji region in Ethiopia and was produced by Gemechu Shonora in cooperation with around 500 smallholder farmers. The crops are situated at an altitude of 1900 to 2200 meters above sea level, and the dominant varieties are Kurume and other local varieties characteristic of this region. The name Harruu Bunnaqaa originates from the Oromo language. "Harruu" means a large shade tree, under which Oromo community meetings traditionally took place, while "Bunnaqaa" is related to sharing coffee. Harruu Bunnaqaa is also a historical site in Guji, where local Oromo leaders would meet to jointly celebrate peace, blessings, and coffee. Coffees from this area stand out for their exceptional complexity and aromatic intensity, resulting primarily from the high altitude of the crops and very fertile soils. The sensory profile frequently features herbal, floral, and spicy notes, along with fresh accents reminiscent of hops or citrus. This lot offers a flavor profile with notes of blueberry, vanilla, and lemongrass, with a distinct, crisp texture. This coffee performs particularly well in filter brewing methods. Store in a dry and cool place.
