Ethiopia - Lalesa - Anaerobic

Lalesa Washing Station · Galeb
Ephtah · 2200 MASL
Heirlooms · 7 Day Anaerobic Fermentation

A big, juicy Ethiopian with a floral edge. Lalesa leads with ripe blueberry and a bright squeeze of lemon, opens up into rose as it cools, and finishes soft and sweet like nougat.

Grown at 2200 metres and processed by Ephtah at Lalesa Washing Station, this lot of heirloom varieties was given a 7 day anaerobic fermentation. That long, low-oxygen ferment is what pushes the fruit and florals this far, and we've roasted it for filter to keep all of it in the cup.

In the Cup

Expect blueberry, lemon, rose and nougat.
