Ethiopia West Arsi

The Ethiopia West Arsi from the Wild Coffee Roastery is always popular. Its fruity-floral taste with notes of stone fruit is typical of Ethiopian country coffees and ensures a flavor-intensive experience in every cup. The Ethiopia West Arsi is also suitable for all types of preparation.

We get the beans for our West Arsi via direct trade from Testi Coffee in Ethiopia. Testi was founded in 2009 and now has more than 20 washing stations in the country. In addition to growing high-quality specialty coffee, Testi Coffee supports the families and villages that grow the coffee. With its social projects, the company promotes education and infrastructure in rural areas.

Do you fancy a unique coffee with a particularly fruity taste? Then our Ethiopia West Arsi is the perfect choice. Its floral taste is rounded off with notes of bergamot and stone fruit, creating an incredibly delicious cup profile.

Ethiopia is generally considered the birthplace of coffee. To this day, there are thousands of varieties there that are still completely unexplored. These varieties are usually labeled as mixed heirloom. The wild coffee trees are part of the permanent forest in Ethiopia. That is why there is also coffee that is simply grown in people's gardens.

These are called garden coffees and grow among many other plants on the villagers' land. Coffee from Ethiopia is famous for its floral and fruity profile in the cup. This unique world of flavor is achieved primarily through processing. The washed processing method brings out the notes much more intensely. This is why over 50% of coffee from Ethiopia is now processed wet.
