Espresso Blend Description

Our Seasonal Release coffees are sourced in very limited quantities from exceptional producers around the world. Once they're gone, they're gone.

This release comes from the renowned Chelchele washing station in the heart of Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia, one of the world's most celebrated coffee growing regions. Grown at elevations above 2,000 metres by hundreds of dedicated smallholder farmers, the cherries are carefully hand picked before being meticulously sorted and dried on traditional raised African beds.

The natural processing method allows the fruit to slowly dry around the bean, creating remarkable sweetness and complexity while showcasing the distinctive character that has made Ethiopian coffees famous.

Roasted specifically for espresso, this coffee delivers a beautifully vibrant and elegant cup with layers of apricot, ripe berries and delicate bergamot, balanced by silky sweetness and a lingering floral finish.

Whether enjoyed as a straight espresso or with milk, Chelchele offers a refined expression of Ethiopian coffee that's both approachable and memorable.
