Who it's for: This is a coffee for people who already know they love natural process Ethiopians, or who want to find out why everyone's obsessed with them. It's not a "set and forget" bag dial in your recipe and it rewards you properly. We'd point you toward filter or Aeropress first, though a light, well-tuned espresso shot will show it off too.

Where it's from: Grown at 1,800–2,000 masl in the Konga Kebele, Yirgacheffe District, in Ethiopia's Gedeo Zone, red clay soil, shade-grown, slow to mature. It's the work of 800 small-scale farmers, each tending around 2 hectares of heirloom varieties, delivering cherries straight to the local processing station. From there it's sun-dried on raised beds for 15–21 days, raked by hand, covered through the hottest hours and every night, until it's ready.
