About this Coffee
Easily one of our most popular beans. They're super floral, with unmistakable notes of jasmine flowers and blueberries. Usually, the darker you roast a coffee, floral accents go up in smoke. But with this Sidamo, you can detect jasmine all the way up the roasting profile.
Usually, the darker you roast a coffee, floral accents go up in smoke. But with Sidamo, you can detect jasmine all the way up the roasting profile.
These beans are SHB (Strictly Hard Bean), meaning the plants that mothered these beans struggled to survive at an elevation above 2,200M (7,000 FT). The few berries that did manage to mature, did so very slowly, absorbing nutrients from the soil and slowly producing more complex flavour profiles.
Coffee Processing
When the coffee cherries are fully ripened they’re picked and immediately dried, without removing the pulp, in raised beds using a technique called Natural Processing. Natural process coffees are more eco-friendly as they don’t create acidic waste water, but this technique is very finicky. Skill is required to rotate the shrivelling berries by hand for an entire month to ensure an even drying process that prevents mold and rot from spoiling the crop. The effort is well worth it though: a rich, densely fruity cup that tastes brilliantly sweet. You may want to skip the sugar with this one.

How to Brew It
20g Coffee : 300ml of water
For easier math, we recommend a ratio of 20g of coffee per 300ml of water. If you are doing a drip method, aim for your grinds to be about the size of coarse salt.
Tips
Resting Your Coffee
Right after roasting, coffee needs some time to chill for a minimum of three days. Our roasting cycle ensures that when you receive the beans, it’ll have rested the minimum needed. However, the flavours will continue to improve over a time. How long? Well that depends on the roasting level you ordered.
Tips
Peak Flavor Time
Your coffee will taste best depending on the roast level:
Light: 7-9 days after roast date
Roaster’s Choice: 5-7 days after roast date
Dark: 3-5 days after roast date
But every bean and person is different so please experiment and find what works for you!

No Pre-Ground Beans?
Unfortunately no. The second you grind, you expose your beans to the nemesis of delicious coffee: oxygen. Grinding introduces so much oxygen that your coffee may stale before you receive it.
To ensure you get the best tasting coffee possible, we recommend you to buy a grinder.
