Years ago I received a free cup of coffee because I’m a mother and it was Mother’s Day. It was a transformative moment. Unfortunately , the establishment that gave me this elixir stopped carrying it. All they could tell me about it was that it was Ethiopian. Thus began my years-long crusade. I started roasting my own coffee, because, as I was to learn, there’s Ethiopian coffee, and there’s Ethiopian coffee. I tried making coffee that came from every corner of the country, but nothing came close. I thought that I had to be roasting it the wrong way. Finally, with an ending like a rom-com or a children's picture book, Bodhi sent me an email with a smiling woman with a basket of coffee beans. I ordered it, and the rest is history. There's an important addendum to this happy tale. i found that the sweet, fruitly flavor was too intense on its own, so I blend it with a less pungent coffee.

This one is insane! I did 2 small profile roasts and the faster, shorter roast with 10% dev is so fruity and vibrant! Full of mandarin orange and floral notes. This one is special!
