Ethiopia • Washed Guji • Special Prep
This Guji “Special Prep” lot of Washed Coffee from Ethiopia has had extra hand sorting for quality giving it the “Special Prep” designation. It means a cleaner cup with great complexity and balance of flavors.
This lot is from the Bishan Wate Washing Station located in Guji near the Wate River. Around 50 farmers contribute cherry. Coffee cherries are picked when well-ripe and sent straight to be processed. First, the cherries are floated in cool, clean water to sort out any flaws. Next, they are washed, depulped, and then undergo a 48-hour fermentation. Finally, they are moved to dry on raised beds that are positioned for maximum wind exposure and minimal direct sunlight. The coffee dries for 21 days or until the moisture content reaches 12%.
