Ethiopia has the world's most diverse coffee planting system and a complex ancient gene pool, coupled with multiple treatments of sun, water and semi-washing, showing a complex and changeable flavor. It can be said that the "taste spectrum" of coffee producing areas around the world can be drunk here, reflecting Ethiopia's inclusive "king flavor". Peter Giuliano (former director of SCAA), the promoter of the third wave of boutique coffee, once said, "if you test every batch of Ethiopia, you will often drink a new flavor that has never been seen before." Setting foot on the land of Arabica evolution is like jumping into the ocean of genes and beginning to experience the unpredictable boundaries of coffee. "

Ethiopia is the cradle of Arabica. Growing coffee, stir-frying coffee and making coffee are unique local cultural heritage. Farmers are used to growing coffee, bananas, grains, vegetables, and other crops in the fields, and store dried coffee fruits as currency on the one hand, and for friendship, weddings, funerals, and religious activities on the other. Traditional Ethiopians even have coffee to celebrate when they give birth to livestock.

The average family has a fixed time, place and ceremony for drinking coffee, just like Christian worship, which is called "Bunna ceremony". The traditional methods and utensils they use to make coffee are completely different from the general way we extract coffee today. The Ethiopian coffee producing area is divided into east and west parts by the East African Rift Valley. Lakes, volcanoes, lowlands, plateaus and woodlands crisscross and evolve respectively. Ethiopia has the most diverse coffee ecosystem in the world (forest coffee, semi-forest coffee, pastoral coffee and plantation coffee), which also preserves its rich Arabica genes. Most of the eastern half is the plateau, and the coffee beans taste better, such as Yega Chefe and Sidamo, which are popular with bright sour taste, and Harald, which is charming and "miscellaneous"; the western half is covered with a large area of primeval forest, and most of them are in the process of completely natural evolution. it has created more complex coffee varieties, and the coffee varieties in the Kafa forest in the southwest are highly resistant to disease. Due to natural evolution and less manual selection, its overall flavor is slightly lower than that of Yirga Cheffe in the eastern half of the country. It is a small town in eastern Egypt with an elevation of 1800m to 2000m. The ancient saying "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". Yejaschen, which is attached to the Sidamo region, is very popular in the world boutique coffee circle because of its unique jasmine fragrance and citrus acid. This special taste is also known as "Yejashifen" taste. According to the defect rate of raw beans, Yejia snow caffeine can be divided into five grades of G1~G5 from good to bad. It is generally washed with water, but there are also a small number of excellent beans intended to be insolated to enhance the charming fruit aroma and mellow thickness.
