ORIGIN STORY
JOURNEY TO ETHIOPIAN HIGHLANDS
Discover the birthplace of coffee and meet the farmers behind our Yirgacheffe beans.
In the misty highlands of southern Ethiopia, where ancient coffee forests still grow wild, a remarkable story unfolds each harvest season. This is Yirgacheffe — a name that has become synonymous with the world's most exquisite coffee.
Legend has it that coffee was discovered here over a thousand years ago, when a goatherd named Kaldi noticed his goats dancing with unusual energy after eating bright red berries from a certain tree. Today, we partner with the descendants of those original coffee guardians to bring you beans that carry centuries of tradition in every sip.
THE LAND & CLIMATE
THE PERFECT TERROIR
The Yirgacheffe region sits at elevations between 1,700 and 2,200 metres above sea level. Here, the combination of rich volcanic soil, consistent rainfall, and cool temperatures creates the perfect conditions for Arabica coffee to develop its signature complexity.
Coffee grows slowly in these highlands, allowing the cherries to develop deep, concentrated flavours. The result is a cup unlike any other — bright with citrus, sweet with jasmine, and eternally unforgettable.
