Ethiopia Legesse Matisso is available now!
Most loved coffee by customers saying “this is the best coffee I’ve ever tasted!” We have limited supply of this Operation Cherry Red Ethiopia from Trabocca.
Legesse is a 2nd-generation coffee producer whose family have owned the farm since 1960. Coffee is their sole source of income and they focus on high quality coffee and building strong relationships. The 5.15 hectare farm is 1710 masl (meters above sea level) is located in the Harenna Forest, one of Ethiopia’s largest and most biodiverse natural forests. The region is home to native plants and wildlife creating ideal agroforestry for coffee cultivation. Mild temperatures and low rainfall makes it ideal for processing and drying coffee.
We roast this coffee with low temperatures and around 20% development time in around 10 minute batch times to get the best flavor bring the air temp inside the drum to below the bean temp at the end of the roast to avoid tipping and scorching of the bean so there is no burning of the sugars from the natural anaerobic process. Multiple gas changes and small air flow changes make this flavor development possible alongside roasting small batches and handsorting any defects in the tray before bagging immediately to preserve oxygen eating away the coffee flavors.
What makes coffee amazing??? Every detail from farm to cup and especially the roast process. We recommend aging this coffee 7-10 days and because of our roast profile it has a great shelf life! Enjoy !!
