Description

Discover the pinnacle of Ethiopian coffee with Fathom Coffee's Crown Jewel Ethiopia Gedeb Bedhatu Jibicho Triple Washed. This exceptional coffee is cultivated at high altitudes in the renowned Gedeb district of Yirgacheffe, known for producing some of the world's finest Arabica beans.

Bedhatu Jibicho, a model farmer and matriarch of the Roba family, has personally managed her 84-acre farm for over 50 years without chemical inputs. This dedication to quality and sustainability is evident in every bean. The triple washing process results in an immaculately clean and floral profile, with tasting notes of black tea, peach, ripe orange, caramel, vanilla, and sweet basil.

As Africa's largest coffee producer and the world's fifth-largest exporter of Arabica coffee, Ethiopia's economy significantly relies on this crop. Coffee generates about 30-35 percent of Ethiopia's total export earnings, making it the nation's primary source of foreign exchange. By choosing this coffee, you're not just treating yourself to an exceptional brew; you're also supporting a vital industry that directly or indirectly impacts the livelihoods of 25 percent of Ethiopia's population.

The Roba family's success as single-farm exporters exemplifies recent changes in Ethiopian export rules, opening new opportunities for individual farmers. Their commitment extends beyond their farm, investing in local infrastructure and establishing cherry collection sites to support neighboring producers.

Roasters will appreciate this coffee's high density and low moisture content, hallmarks of quality Ethiopian beans. While it may require a bit more heat early in the roast, the result is a fantastically complex and balanced cup that shines in various brewing methods, from pour-over to espresso.

Indulge in this Crown Jewel from Ethiopia, where centuries-old coffee traditions meet modern quality control and sustainable practices. Experience the rich heritage and bright future of Ethiopian coffee with every sip of Fathom Coffee's Crown Jewel Ethiopia Gedeb Bedhatu Jibicho Triple Washed.
