Lim's taste spectrum is different from that of Sidamo and Yegashifi: its body is thinner, and its floral and citrus aromas are inferior to those of Yega and Sidamo.

But there is a smell of grass and cocoa, as well as sandalwood.

Generally speaking, the Limu producing area is mainly washed beans, which is milder in taste than that in Sidamo.

It is often characteristic of citrus; although it is not as famous as coffee from Sidamo or Yegashifi, it also produces coffee beans with many flavors.

Coffee cultivars are native to Ethiopia (Heirloom), and most Ethiopian varieties are named after that.

In fact, it is because there are so many varieties of Ethiopia.

It is like the natural gene bank of Arabica, on the one hand, there are many varieties, and it is difficult to identify and classify.

On the one hand, for the sake of protection, the Ethiopian government is also reluctant to disclose the information of these varieties, so it is collectively called [Heirloom native species].

Nearly 2000 coffee varieties have been recorded in Ethiopia, including 1927 native varieties and 128 imported varieties.

The output of lim is low, and it is mainly exported to Europe and the United States. It was not easy to buy in China in the past, but it is very popular in Europe and America.
