Slow drying 105 batches of Holy Lion single Farm in Humbela Manor, Ethiopia

Ethiopia Hambela Benti Nenqua G1 Washed SFP Lot 105

Tried the sun version of Humbela and found that the bean merchant also entered the washed version. There is an interesting trend in Ethiopian coffee in the past year or two. the processing plant is trying to reduce the fermented taste of sun beans, improve the cleanliness and brightness of coffee, and replace the strong fermented aroma of sun beans with bright sweet and sour. Water-washed beans, on the other hand, prolong the sweetness caused by fermentation, and the slight fermentation aroma replaces the honey and citrus sweet and sour fragrance we are used to in the past. It is possible that ECX changed the grading method in 2015 to take the cup test score into consideration and accounted for 60% of the weight. In order to get high marks, it may be an inevitable trend to clean the sun beans and sweeten the washed beans.

It grows in Guji area, 2150m above sea level, and is planted by local small farmers. The cup test flavor offered by raw bean merchant P looks very strong, not only similar to the sweet smell of egg blossom, with aromas of various citrus and exotic juices, but also with the sour and sweet of berries such as strawberries and blueberries, and the overall sweetness is close to that of peaches and honey.
