Daye Bensa Rumudamo, Ethiopia

A bright, tea-like washed Ethiopia — peach iced tea, strawberry and jasmine. A washed Ethiopia that drinks like cold peach tea. Lemon sherbet on the nose, then peach iced tea, strawberry and a clear line of jasmine, over a medium body and a bright, clean acidity. It's delicate and floral — the kind of cup that rewards a careful brew. It comes from Rumudamo, a washing station high in the hills of Arbegona, in the Bensa area of Sidama, run by Asefa Dukamo Korma of Daye Bensa. Cherry from the surrounding villages is fermented and washed, then dried slowly on raised beds. Washing keeps the cup clean and lets the florals and fruit come through. On the bar from 9 July. If you lean towards bright, floral, fruit-led coffees, start here.
