Subtext Coffee - Chelbesa Danche

Tasting Notes: White Cherry, Jasmine, Peach Nectar 

Gedeb is one of four coffee growing woredas (districts) in the Gedeo zone, which also includes the famous Yirgacheffe woreda. As in other Ethiopian regions, farm sizes here are very small, and they are planted mostly with JARC varieties.Once cherries arrived at the Station, they are placed in water for sorting and removing floaters. Cherries are then de-pulped, dry-fermented for 96 hours and washed to remove the mucilage. The parchment is then laid out to dry on raised beds for 12- 14 days.
