Redber, ETHIOPIAN NATURAL SIDAMO - Medium Roast Coffee, Redber Coffee

Ethiopia Sidama coffee comes from the Sidama region, located south of Ethiopia's capital, Addis Ababa. This region is renowned for its ideal coffee-growing conditions, with altitudes ranging from 1,600 to 1,900 meters above sea level, rich volcanic soil, ample rainfall, and optimal temperatures. These conditions make Sidama one of Ethiopia's most productive and sought-after coffee regions, known for producing high-quality beans with distinct flavours and a unique character.

The Sidama beans are of the Typica variety and are fully washed to ensure clarity and consistency in the cup. The washed processing method involves removing the mucilage from the coffee cherries before fermentation, resulting in a cleaner, brighter cup with enhanced acidity and refined flavours. The Grade 2 classification for Sidama coffee indicates a high-quality washed coffee with minimal defects (4-12 defects per 300g), showcasing the careful attention to detail in its production.

Ethiopia is believed to be the birthplace of coffee, with wild Coffea Arabica plants growing in the forests of the Kaffa region. Ethiopian coffees, especially those from Sidama, are celebrated for their varied and distinctive flavour profiles, which can range from sweet and fruity to floral and tea-like.
