Experience the exquisite Ethiopia Taro, sourced from the renowned Kayon Mountain Coffee Farm in the Guji zone of Ethiopia. Nestled between the villages of Taro and Sewana, this coffee is grown at an impressive 2200 meters above sea level, benefiting from the shade of acacia and indigenous trees that enhance its complexity. The farm’s commitment to sustainability shines through its use of natural compost made from coffee pulp, nurturing both the coffee and the community through support for local schools.
Ethiopia Taro is naturally processed, sun-dried on raised beds for 14 to 18 days, allowing the cherries to develop a rich and vibrant flavor profile. Hand-picked and meticulously sorted, the cherries undergo a careful drying process that preserves their fruity and flowery character. In the cup, expect a symphony of flavors with notes of strawberry pie, caramel, honey, and almonds, complemented by a strong acidity and a light to medium body.
At Shortwave Coffee, we roast this exceptional coffee to highlight its natural sweetness and complex citrus nuances, celebrating the artistry of traditional Ethiopian coffee farming. Enjoy a cup of Ethiopia Taro – a harmonious blend of flavor, tradition, and community impact.
