Djimma

Short and sharp, knock your socks off.

Funky fruits and strawberries dipped in dark chocolate.

This is memorable stuff.

PROFILE

Growing: Shade grown

Harvest: November - January

You haven’t had an espresso until you’ve had an Ethiopian Natural process sundried Djimma – short, sharp and knock your socks off while you need a rubber band to yank your head back onto your shoulders. Yes, that's good! As the all time favourite of our roaster, Tong, he loves it blended with Yemen Ishmaili and dribbled ristretto into the back of the mouth. The intense sweetness is subliminally smooth and private as an ecstatic cosmic experience that in any other guise normally comes at special moments, that cannot be shared. This is momentary stuff.
