Ethiopia is an ancient country with a history of 3000 years of civilization. The Hamite people who immigrated from the southern Arabian Peninsula were the earliest inhabitants.

Monlinique I reigned in 975 BC. The Kingdom of Nubia was established in the 8th century BC.

From the 1st century to 976 AD, the Ethiopian Empire, also known as the Kingdom of Aksum, was established in Aksum in the north. Christianity was introduced into Ethiopia in the 4th and 5th century. From the 12th century to 1270, the Zagvi dynasty was established.

In 1270, the Abyssinian Empire was established. [3]

The early invasion period of western colonialism

Portugal and the Ottoman Empire invaded one after another in the 16th century. British troops invaded Ethiopia in 1867 and Sudanese Mahdi troops invaded in 1887.

In 1889, Mennelik II became emperor, unified the country, established the capital Addis Ababa, and established the territory of modern Ethiopia. In 1890, Italy invaded, squeezed out British power and declared Ethiopia a "sanctuary". In 1896, Menlinique II led the army to defeat the Italian army in Adua and was forced to recognize the independence of Ethiopia. [1]

Yirga cheffe is a small town in Ethiopia, 1700-2100 meters above sea level, and it is also synonymous with Ethiopian boutique coffee. Since ancient times, it is a wetland. The ancient saying "Yega" yirga means "settle down", and "Xuefei" cheffe means "wetland". Therefore, Yejasuefi means "Let's settle down in this wetland".

Strictly speaking, Yega Xuefei is a by-product area of Ethiopia's Sidamo Sidamo province, located northwest of Sidamo, along the mountain with paste, is one of the highest coffee-producing areas in Ethiopia. However, the mode of production and flavor here are so outstanding that Ethiopian 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, Yejassefi's coffee trees were planted by European monks (a bit like Belgian monks growing wheat to brew beer), and later by farmers or cooperatives. Yejia Chuefei is actually constructed by surrounding coffee communities or cooperatives, including Edido Idido, Hafusa Harfusa, Hama Hama and Biloya near Fog Valley Misty valley, all washed with water, but there are also a small number of off-product beans engraved with sun to enhance the 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 flowers. Coffee trees are mostly planted in farmers' own backyard or mixed with other crops in the field, the yield per household is not much, it is a typical rural coffee. Yega Xuefei won the prize beans almost from the above-mentioned coffee villages and communities.

The so-called "Yega Chuefei" refers to the strong aromas of jasmine, lemon or lime acid, as well as peach, almond or tea. On the other hand, the smell of dried blueberries is particularly prominent this season, and the room is full of blueberries after grinding.
