Ethiopia | Chelbesa One

From the renowned Chelbesa washing station in Gedeb, Yirgacheffe, this coffee is sourced from around 1,000 smallholder farmers at 1,950–2,200 MASL. The washed process—featuring 48–72 hours of dry fermentation followed by 7–10 days on raised beds—delivers a clean, fruit-forward cup. Expect ripe stone fruit (peach jam), floral brightness (jasmine), and zesty citrus (limeade, sweet orange). Chelbesa's reputation and SNAP's meticulous cherry selection make this a standout expression of Yirgacheffe's classic complexity.
