The Chelchele station will be well known to anyone who's been around coffee for a while. Coffee from this station is featured in roasteries offering lists the world over, and is seen as exemplary of coffee from the Yirgacheffe region.

This lot is a natural and has natural process character in spades. It's a huge bright fermenty cup, with plenty of mouthfeel and acid. It's got a pleasant floral note and, in the cup, has a really nice peachy character that elevates the experience a lot.

It's a classic fruit forward expression and definitely worth purchasing some if you've never tried "Yirg" coffee before.
