01 |Production area

unique geographical environment

Yirga cheffe is a small town in Ethiopia with an altitude of 1700-2100 meters. It is one of the highest coffee producing areas in the world and synonymous with Ethiopian fine coffee. Lake Turkana, Lake Abaya and Lake Chamo bring abundant water vapor here. In the rift valley represented by Misty Valley, fog permeates all year round, spring is like all the year round, the breeze is gentle, cool and humid, thousands of coffee trees thrive and multiply, giving birth to the unique fragrance of flowers and fruits of Yejia Xuefei, which is ambiguous and unpredictable.

History of Yega Shefi

Initially, Yegashefi's coffee trees were cultivated by European monks (a bit like Belgian monks growing wheat to brew beer), but later by farmers or cooperatives. Coffee trees are naturally scattered in forests and fields and backyards. During harvest season, Ethiopian coffee trading companies would come to town to buy coffee beans collected by farmers and eventually auction them for export under the brand name "Yegashefi."

About Red Cherry Project OPERATION CHERRY RED

Speaking of "red cherry project" quite a lot of friends are no stranger to this name. So what exactly is the Red Cherry Project? Maybe only a few people can say it.

In order to improve the income of Ethiopian coffee farmers and improve the living standards of local people, in 2007, Trabocca, a Dutch trader, launched the "OPERATION CHERRY RED PROJECT" Red Cherry Project with local farmers. Purely to encourage farmers to improve the quality of their beans. At the beginning of the harvest season, Trabocca will specify a harvest plan for microclimate areas, manually harvesting 100% mature red coffee cherries, yielding approximately 1500 kg-3000 kg.

The Red Cherry Project invested $5000 in 2008 to purchase new sun drying racks. An additional $8000 was invested in 2009 to purchase new sun drying racks and shade nets. A $9000 generator was invested in 2010 and a further $10000 was invested in 2011 to improve some of the local coffee transport roads, making it easier and more efficient to transport coffee. Trabocca offers interest-free loans for the purchase of new coffee cherry fleshing machines and coffee bean sorters. In order to facilitate supplier procurement, a high-quality Addis Ababa coffee cup testing laboratory was built in 2012 with an investment of US $14000.

Trabocca provides financial support, new hardware and production process know-how to help farmers improve their production levels, promising generous prices if the quality of the actual output meets cup testing standards in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Trabocca's passing criteria is 88 points.

Red Cherry coffee beans are packaged in plastic inner bags (GrainPro bags or vacuum boxes) immediately after processing at the origin and then shipped to Djibouti for shipment. We strive for perfect quality through real-time monitoring, safe transportation and timely and appropriate handling. Roasters can also buy high-quality coffee beans because of this red cherry project, which also improves the quality of Ethiopian coffee and has a better price. Trabocca can also return profits to farmers, and then continuously improve and continuously improve the quality.

02 |treatment

This sun-cured coffee is slightly larger in size and slightly lower in density and moisture content. Each coffee from this plant can be considered a high-quality processed coffee, exhibiting characteristics superior to those of other coffees, and regardless of the processing method used, the beans here can be considered the best coffee in the Yega region.

After screening available coffee cherries in the treatment plant, the coffee cherries with intact pulp and peel are placed in an elevated shed for sun treatment. It is this way of putting high-intensity labor into the shed to isolate contact with the ground and prevent the dirt from being produced in the process of sun exposure, thus creating an unusually clean fruit flavor. After more than two weeks of sun exposure, the dark brown coffee cherries are professionally stored while the full flavor ripens. Before shipment, the processing plant will take the coffee beans out of the coffee cherries, sweet feeling can be imagined.

04 |brewing analysis

The Flavor of Yerga Shefi

Brewing method

As for brewing methods, hand brewing and siphon brewing are the best. When you grind the beans, you can smell the tangy sun fruity, sweet obvious.

Gentle and delicate, sweet and pleasant. Yejia Shefei exudes an extremely complex aroma, showing an extremely outstanding taste, which is difficult to describe.

The first brew: V60 filter cup, 15 grams of powder, water temperature 90 degrees, grinding 4, water powder ratio close to 1:15

31g water steams for 29s

Staging: water injection to 99ml water cut, slow water injection to 230ml

The wet ripe berry fermented fruit wine flavor makes people not believe that this is Ye Jia Xue Fei, but this wet fragrance is not very popular with individuals. However, from the extremely smooth taste to the delicate mellow taste, the ripe fruit was sweet and sour, which was really amazing. The sweetness exceeded that of any Yega he had drunk before. Aftertaste performance is also quite good, worthy of the "fruit bomb", after drinking the basic can guarantee that half an hour mouth still feel sweet.
