Everything processing method and form of coffee produced by the birhanu sisters is worth tasting if you like the yirgacheffe profile (high acidity/brightness and floral) this one in particular is sweet and balanced. I did not find any quakers or roast defects in the roast. The cupping notes are spot on. This coffee makes a fantastic cold brew or nitro cold brew for a summer day. It also makes a great light roast espresso pulled with a higher ratio and long preinfusion at six bars. Lastly did a pour over with an orea which my wife could drink black (she prefers milk in her coffee). This coffee is expertly roasted, from a great origin and producer. If you like the washed Ethiopian flavor profile this coffee delivers that and more. If you don’t know if you like this profile and you like sweet coffee then give this one a try.
Doesn’t ship as fast as Amazon, but that’s because it’s roasted after you order it. If you’re a serious coffee drinker, YIELD is an excellent source.
I bought this for my husband since I don't do caffeine (I bought the decaf, which I also love). Needless to say, he's been really enjoying his morning coffee lately! It was also so nice to receive a handwritten card from your team. So thoughtful! :) Will definitely order again!
