Ethiopia: Konga G2, Yirgacheffe

In the Gedeo Zone’s high ridges around Yirgacheffe, coffee grows in garden plots beneath enset and shade trees—an origin synonymous with floral, citrus‑driven cups since the 1960s. Handpicked cherries are wet‑milled at community washing stations, where cool spring water and raised‑bed drying preserve delicacy and perfume. Kept light in the roaster, this lot shows classic Yirgacheffe poise: lemon zest and sweet bergamot over a honeyed core, with jasmine and white‑grape nuance. Acidity is bright and crystalline yet neatly composed, texture lands silky and tea‑like, and the finish is clean and sweet with lingering citrus‑floral lift—precise, elegant, and refreshing.
