Ethiopia: Misty Valle, Yirgacheffe 

Ethiopia prepares some of the world’s finest coffee known for complexity and delicious flavor profiles you can’t find anywhere else. In fact, the Misty Valley enters the Ethiopian coffee exchange as a Grade 1 Yirgacheffe––there are no flaws to be found in these beans.

Producer, exporter and developer Abdullah Bagersh ensures that Misty Valley’s ripe cherries are subject to superior care from start to finish. Through the first 48 hours, the coffee beans are constantly turned to provide even evaporation. This process provides consistency and cleanliness, which is often difficult to accomplish in the Gedio region of Ethiopia.

Cupping Notes: Blueberry, chocolate, strawberry, floral, clean, milky body, incredible balance.

Mario Santiz Lopez is a second-generation coffee farmer and the owner of Finca Vista Hermosa, a small 2.5 hectare farm in the Altos region of Chiapas. Before they grew coffee, Mario's parents raised corn and beans, but those crops did not provide enough income to sustain the family. Out of desperation, his father took a job at one of the larger area farms. It was there that he learned about coffee production and the potential earnings he could achieve by growing coffee.
