Last Updated: 2024/09/20, Strictly speaking, Yega Xuefei is a by-product area of Sidamo. Located in the northwest of Sidamo, with mountains and lakes, the town is one of the highest coffee-producing areas in Egypt. However, the mode of production and flavor here are so outstanding that Egyptian coffee farmers compete to take pride in the flavor of their coffee, so they become independent from Sidamo and become the worst in Africa.

Strictly speaking, Yega Xuefei is a by-product area of Sidamo. Located in the northwest of Sidamo, with mountains and lakes, the town is one of the highest coffee-producing areas in Egypt. However, the mode of production and flavor here are so outstanding that Egyptian coffee farmers compete to be proud of the flavor of their coffee, so they are independent from Sidamo and become the most famous producing area in Africa.

At first, Yejasuefei's coffee trees were planted by European monks (somewhat similar to Belgian monks who advocated planting wheat and brewing beer), and later by farmers or cooperatives. Yega Xuefei is actually built by surrounding coffee communities or cooperatives, including Edido, Hafusha, Hama and Bdon near the Fog Valley.

Most coffee beans are washed with water, but a few peas are deliberately sunburned to enhance their charming fruit aroma and mellow thickness. These mountain villages are foggy, like spring all year round, with a gentle breeze in summer, cool but not hot, rain but not damp, and no cold damage in winter, giving birth to a unique "regional flavor" of citrus and flower fragrance. Caffeine F trees are mostly planted in farmers' own backyards or mixed with other crops in farmland, and the yield per household is not much, which is a typical pastoral coffee. Almost all of the award-winning beans come from the above-mentioned coffee villages and communities.

The so-called "Yega Chuefei" refers to strong aromas of jasmine, lemon or green citric acid, as well as sweet peaches, almonds and tea. The author's tasting experience has only one sentence: "Coffee entrance, flowers in full bloom!" Except for the comfort of the taste buds and olfactory cells in the nasal cavity touched by flowers. In addition to the fragrance of flowers, the delicate mellow thickness is like silk and feels wonderful to the touch. At present, many coffee chemists begin to study the microclimate and soil and water around Yega Xuefei, in order to sum up the planting equation of fine coffee.
