**NEW** ETHIOPIA Mundayo

This coffee comes to us from the Mundayo Washing Station located in the West Arsi zone of Oromia. Like many washing stations in Ethiopia, Mundayo collects cherries from over 750 individual small farmers and pays each farmer per kilo of cherry delivered to the station. Once collected, the individual lots are blended together each day to create day lots. Those day lots are then processed and bagged for export. The farmers who contribute to the washing station often grow many different crops and do not exclusively farm coffee.

This naturally processed lot from Mundayo is quite the easy drinker. In the cup, this coffee leads with soft, juicy fruit notes of passionfruit and persimmon paired with an earthy sweetness like molasses on the finish. Alongside those predominant notes, subtler hints of blood orange and Red Delicious apple compliment the overall cup and add both tartness and depth to the sip as the cup cools. We’d recommend a fairly coarse grind size for this coffee to clarify those notes, but a finer grind won’t disappoint!
