Yega Xuefei is one of the producing areas in Ethiopia. The geographical environment is a high-altitude wetland (about 1900 meters). It was originally part of the Sidamo producing area. It is popular in the coffee world because of its classic floral aroma, citrus notes and bright acidity. However, in the case of more and more Yega Xuefei coffee, even the coffee beans in the same producing area will have different flavors because of the different post-processing methods of the factories or cooperatives, so they further classify them into the information that coffee lovers need to know according to the cooperatives. Among them, the Mist Valley community of Yega Xuefei is quite famous for cooperatives such as Idido and Beloya. There are also processing plants such as Chelektu and Konga, who most often wash G1 or G2 coffee and use sun treatment after G3, but in recent years, they have also heard that G1 and G2 coffee have been used for sun treatment, so that the flavor of coffee has more changes and possibilities. (note: Ethiopia's raw coffee beans are graded according to the number of defective beans. G1 represents the least number of defective beans, while G5 is the most and lowest grade.)

In addition, since Ethiopia is considered by most people to be the origin of coffee, there are more than 4, 000 unnamed coffee varieties in Ethiopia, so when buying Ethiopian coffee beans, most of the varieties will be marked as Heirloom.

No specific varieties can be summed up as in Central and South America, but in recent years, a great progress has been made by the world-famous raw bean merchant Ninety Plus (or 90+) who began to plan to grow a single variety of Yega Xuefei, also known as VARON (Variety variety + One single). This coffee Alice has been drunk in Coffee Sweet, and the flavor is quite clean, but the established impression of flower aroma and citrus is no longer so strong, but into a cup of thick dried coffee fruit tea. With a more spicy flavor. This kind of coffee has its particularity and significance, but whether the price and flavor can be accepted may be another matter.
