Regional Highlight: Ethiopia

Don't all coffees from one region taste alike? No, not necessarily! Sometimes, coffees from one country can taste radically different – Ethiopia is a great example.

Map of Ethiopia

As the birthplace of coffee, Ethiopia has the longest tradition of coffee cultivation in the world. As coffee became domesticated, a wide selection of heirloom varieties survived to become what we now call ‘Ethiopian’ coffee. This is true for many coffee growing regions around the world, as well. Growers started with one or two coffees and other varieties were created through breeding. To this day most prized Ethiopian coffees are heirloom varietals. Also because of this history, no place in the world has such a tradition of natural process coffee as the county of Ethiopia.

We wrote about the differences in Natural process vs washed and honey process coffee previously and you can read about it in How is honey processed coffee different from washed or natural?

Even though technology and infrastructure improvements over the last few decades have made it easier to produce fine washed coffees in Ethiopia, natural process Ethiopia coffee is still highly desired by coffee lovers around the world. We feature a fantastic natural Ethiopian coffee that highlights this classic flavor profile.

Ethiopia Sidamo Natural Organic

Our Ethiopia Sidamo Natural Organic has great balance, and a rich almost syrupy texture with chocolate and strong berry sweetness. This single-farm, organic selection was good enough to be featured as a Royal Crown Jewel – the best-coffees designation for our primary importer. The immaculate preparation of this coffee shines through with a cleanliness not often found in natural coffees. 

Ethiopia Biftu Gudina

In recent decades, more and more attention has been paid to preparation of the raw coffee beans. Modern equipment and more infrastructure has developed. As a result, Ethiopia has been increasingly recognized for its stellar washed coffees as well. Our Ethiopia Biftu Gudina is balanced and clean, with a juicy, black tea body and a great lemon acidity, and a more restrained sweetness than its natural counterpart. We source this coffee from Crop to Cup Coffee Importers a direct trade coffee importer, who strives to build meaningful connections between growers and consumers.

One reason Ethiopia has such a tradition of fine coffee is their long history producing a diverse range of heirloom coffee varieties all within the region.
Its distinct soils and varietals, combined with an increase in production and preparation techniques results in a diverse range of delicious, well-balanced coffees.

Try one of our fresh-roasted coffees from this historic coffee growing region. We recommend trying both Natural processed and Washed process beans so you can experience each beans' unique flavor profile for yourself!

Greetings, my name is Cohen Green, and I am based in San Francisco, California, where I work within the real estate sector. Two months prior, I incurred a significant financial setback, losing $1.2 million in Bitcoin and USDT, owing to a fraudulent investment firm. The incident began when I received an enticing proposal from an organization called CANCAP, promising high returns and showcasing verified investor profits, which led me to invest the entire amount.
I initially encountered relentless demands for additional payments when attempting to withdraw funds. Shortly thereafter, their website vanished, and every attempt to contact them proved fruitless. I was left in shock, my hope of recovering the money dwindling. Despite my efforts with authorities, these fraudsters remained elusive. Approximately one month after the incident, while researching online, I discovered an article about MORPHOHACK CYBER SERVICE, a firm renowned for its expertise in crypto recovery. I reached out to them and was astonished by the efficiency and professionalism of their team. Employing sophisticated software tools, they managed to recover $816,000 from the total amount in under 72 hours, even months after the scam occurred. I remain profoundly grateful for their assistance and am still in awe of their capabilities.

The ad on X (formerly Twitter) popped up on my timeline one lazy Sunday afternoon. It was flashy, bold, and impossible to ignore. The headline read, “ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME COMEDY EXTRAVAGANZA!” with a dazzling graphic of a stage lit up in neon lights. The caption said: “Kevin Hart, Ali Wong, Dave Chappelle, and a MYSTERY LEGENDARY COMEDIAN live in Vegas! Limited VIP tickets available. Don’t miss out!” The post had thousands of likes, retweets, and comments like, “This is going to be epic!” and “Already got my ticket!” It even had a blue checkmark next to the account name, which made it seem legit. I clicked the link, and it took me to a sleek website with a countdown timer and a list of sold-out ticket tiers. The only option left was a $125,000 VIP package, which promised front-row seats, backstage access, and a meet-and-greet with the comedians. I hesitated for a moment, but the fear of missing out got the better of me. I thought, When will I ever get a chance like this again? So, I entered my credit card details and hit “Purchase.” The confirmation email came through instantly, and I felt a rush of excitement. Little did I know, I’d just fallen for one of the most elaborate scams I’d ever encountered. Looking back, I should’ve noticed the red flags the overly pushy tone of the ad, the lack of reviews for the event, and the fact that no official accounts from the comedians promoted it. But in the moment, it all seemed so real.I had been swept up by the flashy ad, the excitement of the event, and the FOMO (fear of missing out) that made it seem like an opportunity I couldn’t let slip by. Everything about the ad screamed “exclusive” and “once-in-a-lifetime,” which was enough to convince me to take the plunge. Yet, as time went on and I tried to follow up on the event, I found there was no trace of it anywhere. There were no details, no event pages, and no mention from the comedians themselves. My heart sank as I realized I had been scammed.Thankfully, GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES helped me get my money back, but the experience was a hard lesson in online scams. I’ll never forget that ad on X the one that cost me $125,000 and a whole lot of pride. I learned the importance of being cautious online, checking for reviews, and looking for signs of authenticity before jumping into anything that seems too good to be true.You can reach GRAYWARE TECH SERVICES on web at ( https://graywaretechservices.com/ )    also on Mail: (contact@graywaretechservices.com)

A Life-Changing Experience, Dr Kachi A Testimony of Gratitude

I would like to share an extraordinary experience that has transformed my life. I came across a remarkable testimony online forum about a powerful and renowned spell caster, Dr. Kachi. At the time, I was skeptical because I had never encountered anything related to magic or spell casting before. However, the story of Dr. Kachi’s work resonated with me, and I decided to give it a chance. For years, my family and I struggled financially, and despite my best efforts, I never had luck winning the lottery. I loved playing, but winning seemed impossible. Everything changed when I connected with Dr. Kachi, who provided me with a winning lottery number through a powerful spell. In just 24 hours, I was able to play the lottery and won the Lotto 6/49 prize, a remarkable $68 million cash prize, on September 27th in the Gold Ball Draw. This incredible win has completely changed my life and the financial well-being of my entire family. After 10 years of trying unsuccessfully, I am now living my dream life. I am beyond grateful to Dr. Kachi for his assistance, Dr. Kachi has truly been a blessing to me and my loved ones. I encourage anyone who is interested to reach out to Dr. Kachi for guidance. his website https://drkachispellcaster.wixsite.com/my-site or email drkachispellcast@gmail.com. Also reach him text or call +1 (209) 893-8075.Thank you once again, Dr. Kachi, for making my dreams come true.
