An introduction to the characteristics of the coffee flavor and taste manor of Yegashifei Adoudo, Ethiopia

In September 1974, a group of young officers formed the "Military, Police and Local Army Coordination Committee"(DERGUE, English SHADOW, later referred to the military government and Mengistu regime) to launch a military coup, overthrow Haile Selassie government, announce the end of the monarchy, and establish a "provisional military government." In November, the term "Interim Military Government" was changed to "Interim Military Administrative Council." In December, the Interim Military Administrative Council declared Ethiopia a "socialist state" and nationalized land, financial institutions and industry. In March 1988, the anti-government armed activities of the "Eritrea People's Liberation Front"(EPLF) and "Tigray People's Liberation Front"(TPLF) launched an attack on government forces, and a large-scale civil war broke out. In 1989, the "Eritrea People's Liberation Front" occupied most of Eritrea. On 28 May 1991, the Ethiopian Revolutionary Front (EPRF), dominated by the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF), entered Addis Ababa, and the Mengistu regime was declared dissolved. The constitution stipulates that Ethiopia will adopt a federal system and a parliamentary cabinet system after the election, with a term of office of five years. National elections were held in May 1995. On August 22, the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia was established. Meles became Prime Minister as Chairman of the Majority Party in the House of People's Representatives. On May 14, 2000, Ethiopia held a national election, in which the Ethiopian Revolutionary Front defeated other opposition parties by an absolute majority to retain power. In October, a new federal parliament and government were established. The presidents of both houses and Prime Minister Meles were elected for re-election. The original cabinet was also retained with the approval of the parliament. In October 2001, Mei adjusted the government structure and reorganized the cabinet, adding the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Culture and the Ministry of Taxation, and established a new cabinet composed of 18 ministers. Ethiopia is dominated by mountainous plateaus, mostly subordinate to the Ethiopian plateau. The central and western parts are the main part of the plateau, accounting for 2/3 of the whole territory. The Great Rift Valley of East Africa runs through the whole territory, with an average altitude of nearly 3,000 meters. It is known as the "Roof of Africa". The terrain around the plateau gradually declines. The Darol depression in the north drops to 113 meters below sea level, the lowest point in the country. The Red Sea coast is a narrow strip of plain. The desert and semi-desert areas in the north, south and northeast account for about 25% of the country's area. Mount Dashan in the West Gate Mountains is 4,623 meters above sea level and is the highest peak in Ethiopia.

The coffee trees of Yegashefi were planted by European monks and later by farmers or cooperatives. Yegashefi is actually formed by surrounding coffee communities or cooperatives, which generally include: Hafusa, Hama, and Biloa.

These mountain villages are foggy, spring all year round, cool but not hot in summer, rain but not damp in winter, and they breed unique regional flavors of citrus and flowers. Coffee trees are grown mostly in farmers 'backyards or mixed with other crops in their fields. Ethiopia's Yirgacheffe coffee is small, but it is gentle and sweet. As the home of coffee, Ethiopia's millennia of growing and processing traditions have resulted in high-quality washed Arabica beans. Light baked with unique lemon, floral and honey sweet aromas, soft fruit acids and citrus notes, fresh and bright taste. No milk, no sugar, let the rich texture and unique soft floral brush your taste buds, leaving endless aftertaste…

Yegashefi is a small town, 700- 21,000 meters above sea level, synonymous with Ethiopian fine coffee. It is a wetland since ancient times, and the old saying "Yirga" means "settle down" and "Cheffe" means "wetland". The way coffee is produced and the flavor is so prominent that Ethiopian coffee farmers compete to be proud of their coffee with Yirgacheffe flavor, which has become Africa's most famous coffee producing area. Ethiopia's Yirgacheffe coffee is small, but it is gentle and delicate, sweet and pleasant. As the home of coffee, Ethiopia's millennia of growing and processing traditions have resulted in high-quality washed Arabica beans. Light baked with unique lemon, floral and honey sweet aromas, soft fruit acids and citrus notes, fresh and bright taste. With no milk or sugar added, let the rich texture and unique soft floral fragrance brush through your taste buds, leaving an endless aftertaste. The coffee tree of Yega Shefi was planted by European monks (a bit like Belgian monks growing wheat to brew beer), and later by farmers or cooperatives. Yega Shefi is actually constructed by the surrounding coffee communities or cooperatives, including IDIDO, HARFUSA, HAMA, and Baloa near Misty Valley. All of them are washed, but there are also a small number of unique beans deliberately exposed to the sun to enhance the charming fruity flavor and body. These mountain villages are foggy, spring all year round, cool but not hot in summer, rain but not damp in winter, and they have a unique regional flavor of citrus and flowers. Coffee trees are mostly planted in farmers 'backyards or mixed with other crops in the field. The yield per household is not much. It is a typical pastoral coffee. Yega Shefi award-winning beans almost come from the coffee villages and communities mentioned above. The so-called "yejia sherry flavor" refers to rich jasmine flowers, lemon or lime acid aroma, as well as peach, almond sweet or tea aroma. However, this season's dried strawberry flavor is particularly prominent, after grinding the house full of blueberry fragrance. The phrase "coffee in the mouth, flowers in full bloom" is the best way to describe it, just as flowers stimulate the comfort of taste buds and nasal olfactory cells. In addition to the floral fragrance, the delicate BODY is like silk massage in the mouth, wonderful touch. Many coffee chemists have begun to study the microclimate and soil around Yegashifi to derive the growing equation for fine coffee.
