Introduction of fine coffee with fresh and bright taste in Ethiopian coffee manor

The Great Rift Valley of East Africa extends from the Dead Sea Jordan Valley of West Asia to the south of the Gulf of Aqaba through the Red Sea and runs through the central Ethiopian plateau from northeast to southwest. After arriving at Lake Abaya at the southern tip of Ethiopia, the Great Rift Valley divides into east and west branches and continues to extend south. The eastern branch rift valley is the main rift valley, which runs southward through the Kenyan highlands through Lake Turkana at the northern tip of Kenya and southwest through Lake Maniara to Lake Malawi at the southern tip of Tanzania. [12]

The topography of the East African rift belt is complex and varied. Sometimes the peaks stand tall and towering; sometimes the canyons are secluded and the lakes are beautiful. The rift belt is full of volcanoes and is colorful. Among the many volcanoes are extinct volcanoes that have not been active for hundreds of years, as well as active volcanoes that have erupted in this century. The most famous of these are Mount Kilimanjaro and the Kenyan volcano in Kenya. Mount Meru in Tanzania is an active volcano that erupted in 1953. The most spectacular active volcano here is Nyiragongo, north of Lake Kivu. The volcano is only 3700 meters above sea level, but the sky over the volcano is shrouded in thick smoke all the year round, and the pungent smell of sulfur can be heard for dozens of miles around. There is a magma lake full of hot lava in the crater. The magma in the lake is as red as molten steel, sometimes the heat wave rolls over, the fire bursts into the sky, and sometimes roars into the sky, resounding through the sky, which is really a rare spectacle in the world.

The East African Rift Valley spans almost all countries in East Africa, with the longest in Ethiopia. In fact, the East African Rift Valley is not limited to East Africa, it is actually a huge fault zone across the Middle East and East Africa, so people call it the biggest scar on the earth. [12]

Lalibela Church

In northern Ethiopia, 11 Lalibela churches hidden in green olive groves suddenly appeared. People usually look up at the church, but here it becomes overlooking. These churches are located in huge pits in the rocks. The meticulously carved church is like a huge sculpture, carved out of hard rock like the temple of Elora. They were built during the reign of King Lalibe in the late 12th century AD. Because of the town's growing reputation, it was eventually renamed after King Lalibe (formerly known as "ha"). St. George's Cathedral is the only church in Lalibe that has been chiseled into a cross.

The construction of these churches made the city of Lalibela a religious center. It may rival Axam, Ethiopia's most important city, or even Jerusalem. Previously, people could only get here by mule cart. At the beginning of the 21st century, it was easy to reach Lalibela by road or air.

Although the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee is petite, it is gentle and delicate and sweet. As the hometown of coffee, thousands of years of planting history and processing tradition in Ethiopia have created high-quality washed Arabica beans. Light baking has unique sweet aromas of lemon, flowers and honey, soft acidity and citrus flavors, fresh and bright on the palate. No milk or sugar, let the rich texture and unique soft flower scent brush your taste buds, leaving an endless aftertaste.

Yega Xuefei is a small town, 700-21000 meters above sea level, synonymous with Ethiopian boutique coffee. It has been a wetland since ancient times. The ancient saying "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". The mode of production and flavor of coffee here is so outstanding that Ethiopian coffee farmers compete to be proud of the flavor of their coffee, making it the most famous coffee producing area in Africa.

At first, Yejassefi's coffee trees were planted by European monks, and later by farmers or cooperatives. Yega Xuefei is actually constructed by the surrounding coffee communities or cooperatives, including: Hafusha, Hama, Biloya.

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 flowers. Coffee trees are mostly planted in farmers' backyards or mixed with other crops in the field.
