Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee. Historians agree that the first plant of Arabica Coffee was discovered in this African nation between the 6th and 8th centuries. Thanks to its unique history and distinctive qualities, Ethiopian coffee has always been highly demanded and continues to fascinate coffee lovers around the world.
One of its finest coffees comes from Yirgachaffe, a village in the popular coffee growing region of Sidamo. Due to its floral aroma, fruity taste notes and distinct tart acidity, this coffee is regarded by many as the cream of the crop of all African coffees.
Cubico Coffee offers a coffee from a small producer in Yirgachaffe. Birhanu Bali Jilo is the owner of the farm. His production is meticulously hand sorted and harvested. The coffee he produces is as organic as it gets. It is a very complex cup with a smooth body, floral taste notes and citric acidity.
