Details:
In the southernmost part of Ethiopia, at an altitude of over 1,800 meters, a special coffee grows in the shade of mountain trees. Sidamo coffee, named after its Ethiopian province of origin, ripens on small trees descended directly from the wild, 90-year-old coffee shrubs of the African rainforest. Like all Ethiopian coffees, Sidamo is a trademark registered by the country. The Coffea Arabica plant originally comes from Ethiopia. Legend has it that in the 9th century, a herder noticed the invigorating effect coffee cherries had on his goats and told the story of the “dancing goats.” Sidamo coffee has small, greenish-gray beans that are slightly longer than American coffee beans. It has pleasant notes of citrus and bergamot. This coffee is known for its very high quality.
