Koke Washing Station (Ethiopia)
type: Product
description: Our newest Homecoming addition. A bright, tropical, intensely sweet Natural Ethiopian from the Koke Washing Station just on the outskirts of the Yirgacheffe region, in the Gedeo zone. Shining with notes of pineapple, melon and rose-like florals. Sticky sweet. Expressive. The reputation of this coffee is bolstered by the first washing station in Ethiopia being in Yirgacheffe, introduced back in the 1970’s. Grown at an altitude between 1870-1900masl and composed of Dega, Kudhume, Wolisho. Kudhume (Kudhumi, Kurume) has a small bean size and is known for disease resistance, also popular in the Guji. Dega sits in the middle with average bean size and tree height, whilst Wolisho (Walichu) exhibits a larger bean size. The names stem mainly from local indigenous trees – Dega is commonly used as firewood and has a reputation for it’s fragrant characteristics (though could also come from a linguistic term in Amharic relating to altitude and temperature that coincide with it’s terrain). Kudhume relates to the Kurume tree that produces small fruit with a good yield – the coffee varietal displays the same characteristics, and Wolisho resembles the characteristics of the tree too, being larger fruit, but an inconsistent yield year after year. Amazing as an exciting espresso, brilliant as a batch brew/filter.
