Shibru Dube Natural | Ethiopia

MEET THE PRODUCER

Shibru Dube and his son Kefyalew run a small estate in Rudo, Chelchele, Ethiopia. After years exporting through commodity channels, they now focus on quality, carefully hand-processing each cherry with dedication and precision.

TRUST THE PROCESS

This lot is naturally processed with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring a clean and vibrant cup. Every cherry is handled with care to preserve its delicate floral and fruit characteristics.

TAKE A SIP

Bright and floral, the cup opens with Earl Grey notes, followed by subtle orange blossom and zippy raspberry acidity. As it cools, the flavors meld into a delicate white strawberry finish, leaving a long, elegant fruit-forward impression.

What is the roast recency?

We recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 6-12 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 12 - should we have any left in stock!). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.
