The Idido Washing Station is found in the kebele of the same name. This is considered a micro-region of Yirgacheffe, famous for its deep red-brown clay soil and unique flavour profile.
When coffee professionals talk about Yirgacheffe, with its lush forests and incredible climate, the tone can almost be one of reverence. Such is the mystique and uniqueness of this part of the world for growing a very distinct style of coffee. The flavour profiles are fruit-forward, floral, complex and very sweet.
It has only been the last several years that we have been able to trace coffee from Ethiopia down to the washing station rather than an entire region such as Yirgacheffe.
This is the first time we have featured a coffee from Idido and we are thrilled with the results!
