Adado Washing Station sits nearby the town of Yirgacheffe. Yirgacheffe is home to some of the most highly sought-after coffees in the world. Arabica coffee plants are native to Yirgacheffe, Arabica grew wild in Yirgacheffe before it grew anywhere else in the world.
As a result, Yirgacheffe’s climate is the climate for Arabica coffee. All the things the coffee industry seeks elsewhere – high altitudes, nutrient-rich soil, adequate rainfall, warm days and cool nights – are here in Yirgacheffe because Arabica evolved to flourish in Yirgacheffe’s climate.
Combine all that with the rigorous, quality-focused processing at Adado Washing Station and you have the original recipe for great coffee. This Natural from Adado is delightfully floral with rich berry notes and a complex sweetness.
This coffee is named after the local tribe, “Adado.” In these coffees, typically apricots and peaches with supportive citrus and floral higher tones come together in a delightful cup. The natural process of these lots really complements the typical profile of the washed coffee beautifully and even shine through the heavy berry overtones in a natural process.
