About this coffee

A washed Yirgacheffe with toffee sweetness and citrus lift.

Medium Roast | Toffee, Citrus & Silky

Toffee sweetness runs the length of the cup, with a juicy citrus sorbet character sitting over the top. The texture is the part people notice: smooth, silky and clean from the first sip to the finish.

Grown at 2000 metres in Yirgacheffe and processed at the Amederaro Washing Station, using 74110 alongside local landrace varieties. The washed process is what keeps it this clear: nothing muddying the sweetness, nothing pulling focus from the citrus.

An all-rounder in the best sense. Bright without being sharp, sweet without being heavy.

Espresso starting point

Dialled in on a Breville Barista Express

Dose
16.5g of fresh grounds in the basket
Yield
36-38g of espresso in the cup
Time
28 to 32 seconds, timed from the first drop
Grind
Fine, like caster sugar. Bitter and slow? Go a touch coarser. Sour and fast? A touch finer.

Tip: Start here. Not quite right? Change one thing — usually the grind — and tomorrow's cup is better. Today's is still fresh coffee.

Questions about this coffee

Where does this sit for strength?
Every coffee we list sits somewhere on a range from gentle to punchy. Check the roast level above, or ask us and we'll place it for you.
How fresh is this coffee?
Our roasters roast fresh for us in small batches, and we usually dispatch within 1 to 2 business days. Coffee actually improves for the first week or so after roasting, then holds well sealed. The roast date is on the bag.
What if I don't like it?
Tell us what didn't work and we'll help you find something closer to your taste. Full policy in our help centre.
Will this work with my machine?
Yes. If you're pulling espresso, the Starting Point above gives you a dose, yield and shot time to begin from. Every machine and grinder is a little different, so expect to adjust from there.
