The biggest feature of Ethiopian coffee is the acidity and floral aroma of the fruit, which is known as the "fruit bomb" by many coffee people. Since we want to highlight such an explosive fragrance, the roasting degree should not be too dark. In contrast, medium-light roasting is most suitable to show the fruity tonality of the washed fruits on the front street.
Different from the era of "bitter coffee", the lightly roasted Yirgacheffe can be said to have opened a "new era of acidic coffee. The main reason why the coffee is strong and bitter is because the roasters roast the coffee beans darkly, and the main flavor is nuts and dark chocolate. With the emergence of the concept of specialty coffee, in order to retain more acidity, the roasters only roast the Yirgacheffe coffee to an appropriate lightness, allowing the Yirgacheffe to exhibit pleasant fruity sweetness and white floral aroma.
Guodingding is the name of a small village in Ethiopia, located in the Woka production area at the southeastern end of Yirgacheffe. The coffee farmers in this village formed an agricultural cooperative. It was originally part of the Woka cooperative under the Yigacheffe Union YCFCU. Later, as people pursued the traceability of green coffee beans, "single production areas" were excavated one by one by coffee hunters around the world.
Guodingding Village originally did not have its own specialized processing plant, and the picked coffee cherries could only be sent to the nearby Woka Village processing plant for washing. Later, after an in-depth inspection by the bean hunter, they believed that the coffee beans in Guodingding Village were of very good quality, so they specially cooperated with local coffee farmers to establish a processing plant belonging to Guodingding Village.
Since water washing treatment requires a large amount of water resources and professional machinery and equipment, it is difficult for self-employed individuals to have the equipment for water washing treatment. Coffee farmers send the picked coffee cherries to processing plants for unified processing. The advantage of washing with water is to ensure the quality of coffee beans, andSince the peel, pulp and most of the pectin are peeled off before formal drying, the inherent aroma of the coffee beans becomes clearer and more thorough, showing citrus and lemon tones and elegant floral aroma, and the overall flavor is bright and delicate.
