Ethiopia is the birthplace of Arabica coffee and Yirgacheffe has long been known for its excellent quality. In Yirgacheffe, the beans have traditionally been washed -- processed in water to remove the pulp and mucilage after harvest. The result is a bright, clean cup known for spicy flavors. If you enjoy this single origin, try our Terrapin Wake-n-Bake - a Joe's special with a notable Yirgacheffe presence.
