A brief introduction to the relationship between Qianjie Coffee-Yejasuffi and Sidamo

Ethiopia has unique natural conditions suitable for growing all imaginable varieties of coffee.

A large amount of coffee production (95%, 2011 data) is done by small shareholders. Ethiopia is unique and different from other flavors. The main coffee types include the following five types: Limu, Djimma, Yirgachefe, Sidamo and Harar.

Yejashafi Coffee is one of the most distinctive coffee in the world. It is an outstanding representative of African washed coffee and has always enjoyed a high reputation in the eyes of coffee connoisseurs around the world. Washed high-quality Arabica coffee, suitable for all degrees of baking, perfectly showing a fresh and bright aroma of flowers and fruits, the bean shape is also very beautiful and complete.

The popularity of Yejia Xuefei is largely influenced by the trend of boutique coffee. Its citrus flavor, with aromas of jasmine, has a unique sour taste similar to that of wine, setting a typical rebellious flavor. The traditional Italian re-roasting basically lost the sour taste of coffee, not to mention citrus and fruit, while Yejasuffi became the representative of floral fruit coffee.

This kind of coffee grows in areas ranging from 1500 to 2000 meters above sea level. The fruit is of medium size, comparable to mocha. Mellow taste, unique charm, always give people a refreshing feeling. Light baking has unique lemon, floral and honey aromas, soft acidity and citrus flavors, fresh and bright on the palate. Yejasuefei is a small town in Ethiopia with an elevation of 1700-2100 meters above sea level, which can be said to be one of the highest coffee producing areas in the world. In other words, it originally belonged to the Sidamo producing area, but because of the unique flavor of the coffee produced here, it was separated separately.

Located in the highland of Sidamo, Ethiopia, at an altitude of 2,000 meters, Yega is one of the highest coffee-producing areas in Ethiopia. The coffee produced here is called yirga cheffe. "yirga" means to settle down, and "cheffe" means "wetland", so it originally means "let us settle down in this wetland". The town is located on the east side of the East African Rift Valley.
