Perfectly balanced and sweet, with a soft, silky mouthfeel but great clarity — high acidity and forest berry notes with fruit layers and a milk chocolate finish, almost tasting like a washed coffee. In the cup: stone fruit, forest berries, and milk chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKhalid Shifa is a third-generation coffee farmer in Gomma, Jimma, using organic farming practices and agroforestry to build resilience and microbial diversity in his soil. This Natural lot from Echemo farm was the first coffee sourced from Khalid, ahead of the washed Bedeye lot that later followed — the relationship continues through importing partner Belco.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis lot is a Natural — cherries are dried whole on Khalid's semi-forest farm, allowing the fruit to impart its character directly into the bean. This approach is what builds the forest berry sweetness and fruit layering behind this cup, while the semi-forest growing conditions keep it unusually clean and clear for a natural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSilky and sweet — soft stone fruit and forest berry notes lead, with layered fruit character and high acidity, finishing on a milk chocolate note.
