Yirgacheffe has a visceral scent. Anyone who has
ever held and roasted Yirgacheffe coffee will
know precisely what we mean. You leave Dilla, the
bustling administrative capitol city of Gedeo Zone and head south
into lands that are rich with nutrients from ancient volcanic deposits,
where incredible biodiversity thrives. A land where self-sustaining
smallholder gardeners cultivate their own little Edens, even amongst
the densest population of the SNNPR region. You bounce around in
the car or bus, making as much mileage side to side as forward. After
the path slightly levels you out on your ride, you are overtaken by the
overwhelming aromas of green enset plants, eucalyptus trees, sweetlysharp
coffee pulp and the occasional waft of frankincense. You have just
entered the heartbeat of Ethiopia’s coffee lands, Yirgacheffe—the “land
of many springs”.
The Layered Fermentation process (which, as we discussed earlier,
carefully creates strata of enzymatic reactions in a single fermentation
tank) amps up the classic combination of bergamot, florality, and
crisp fruit, resulting in notes of nectarine, dried apricot, golden kiwi,
chardonnay, and earl grey tea.
This Layered Fermentation Dumerso is a shimmering example of why
Yirgacheffe coffees are highly prized by buyers.
