“Yirgacheffe doesn’t hide. It grows high, washed clean by mountain water, and it shows you exactly what it is. We keep the roast light and controlled, just enough to carry it through first crack without flattening the florals. You’ll taste citrus right away, more lemon and bergamot than sweetness, followed by jasmine and soft stone fruit as it cools. The body is lighter, the acidity is bright but clean, and the finish stays long and clear. This coffee is about clarity. Miss the timing and you lose it. Hit it right and it sings.” - Thorne and Thatch
