Ethiopia Idido – Yeast Fermentation

The Coffee

This grade 1 microlot is from Idido Gersi station in Yirgacheffe district. This lot was naturally processed with an extended cherry fermentation with yeast cultures added to the fermentation vessel.
Idido Gersi washing station is located in Idido village (or ‘kebele’), Yirgacheffe district and processes cherries from local smallholder farmers. Over a number of years the Yirgacheffe region has developed a distinguished reputation for fine coffees, producing some of the most sought-after microlots in the world.
Shade grown cherries are delivered to the mill for careful sorting, to select only the ripest. The cherries are then fermented in sealed and valved tanks with additional yeast cultures to accelerate and augment the natural fermentation process.

Suitable for all brewing methods, making both a juicy filter coffee and a wonderfully characterful espresso. Expect a sweet and creamy cup with subtle notes of strawberry, vanilla ice-cream and Turkish delight.
