Yirgacheffe coffee has a unique citrus, lemon fruit aroma, with the fragrance of jasmine, a fresh and bright texture, and a clear-cut sour taste, clean and free of impurities.
The high altitude brings a large temperature difference between day and night to Yirgacheffe. The temperature difference between day and night delays the production speed of coffee fruits and can form more flavors. Front Street Yirgacheffe coffee beans have bright citrus acidity, rich white floral aroma, and a honey-like sweet aftertaste. The various floral and fruity aromas bring a very fresh tone to the coffee beans grown in the Yirgacheffe region.
Front Street believes that the reason why so many people like Front Street Yirgacheffe coffee beans is that its rich floral and fruity aroma and bright acidity break people’s stereotype of coffee having only a bitter taste. It was also from Yirgacheffe coffee beans that everyone began to know that coffee can also have such a clear, clean, layered and graceful taste.
There are three different types of Front Street Yirgacheffe. Friends who like fresh and bright floral coffee are recommended to buy Front Street washed Yirgacheffe ration coffee and Front Street Fruit Ding Ding coffee. Friends who like a round and sour taste can choose Sun-dried Front Street Red Cherry Coffee. Different processing methods give the coffee different flavor characteristics.
Since the middle of the last century, the processing technology of Yirgacheffe has mostly been water-washing. The washing method is to use a machine to peel off the peel and pulp of the harvested coffee fruits and place them in a fermentation tank with clean water for 12-36 hours. The acidity generated by the fermentation will decompose the pectin. After decomposition, the pectin will be washed with clean water and then dried in the sun.
But after 2006, the sun-dried Yirgacheffe gradually gained people’s recognition and praise. The sun-drying method is simple. Place the harvested coffee cherries directly on the drying bed for sun-drying. Solar processing is one of the oldest and most traditional processing methods. Coffee fruits are dried in the sun immediately after being picked. In areas with sufficient sunshine or water shortage,
Lightly roasted Yirgacheffe is very good for making single-origin Pour over(V60) or cold-brewed coffee. During a comparative tasting, Front Street found that the single-origin Pour over(V60) coffee has a fuller flavor and a more prominent aroma. It tastes like a special floral and fruit tea, especially the floral aroma and the sweet and sour citrus. Yirgacheffe cold brew has a rounder taste, with mostly berry flavor and dried black tea.
