MORE ABOUT THIS COFFEE
A rare heirloom varietal of coffee from Ethiopia, the Wush Wush varietal is often known for its rarity, low-yield harvests, and fruit forward coffee profile. This specific coffee is grown in the town of Chito, and processed at Mesfin Girma’s washing station. This coffee underwent an extended dry fermentation of 120 hours before being placed on raised beds to dry for 12 days. The extended fermentation adds to the wine-like characteristics of this coffee, presented to us as champagne-like, with sparklingly juicy acidity and a slight booziness.

NOTES ON GRINDING: If you choose “French Press” grind, expect it to be finer than usual, so you’re guaranteed good extraction. Some ultra fine coffee particles will make it through the screen and create a flavorful, albeit slightly opaque cup. In other words, we choose flavor over aesthetics. If you want to keep your cup looking cleaner, choose a pour over grind.
If you don’t see your preferred grind in the options then simply let us know in the notes section at checkout and we’d be happy to grind it for your favorite brewing method.
