Sourced through their exporting partners at SNAP, this is an exceptional first introduction to a site with extraordinary potential. In the cup: peach tea, melon, and jasmine — the hallmark of Gedeb at its most refined and elevated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PRODUCER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChorso Bule sits at 2,450 MASL in Gedeb — one of the highest-elevation coffee-producing sites in Ethiopia, and a region that SEY have been exploring for many years. Gedeb's distinct and expressive profiles have made it one of their most celebrated origin relationships, and Chorso Bule represents a new chapter in that ongoing exploration. The lot was sourced and exported through SNAP, whose quality control infrastructure and relationships with high-elevation Gedeb producers have consistently unlocked coffees of exceptional clarity and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEthiopia is widely acknowledged as the birthplace of coffee, and its extraordinary biodiversity — with DNA testing confirming over 60 distinct varieties — means that most Ethiopian coffees are blends of many co-existing varieties, referred to collectively as Ethiopian Landrace. At 2,450 MASL, Chorso Bule's extreme altitude slows cherry development dramatically, concentrating sugars and building the aromatic complexity that defines this lot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Washed process at Chorso Bule involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🍒 Hand-picking — Cherries selectively harvested at peak ripeness 💧 Flotation — Floated to remove defects and ensure consistency ⏳ In-cherry hold — Whole cherries held for 24 hours before de-pulping 🔧 De-pulping — Outer skin removed after the resting period 🔍 Density separation — Grade 1 density separation before fermentation 🧪 Dry fermentation — Fermented dry for 24 hours 💧 Wet fermentation — Fermented wet but not submerged for an additional 12 hours ☀️ Raised-bed drying — Dried on raised beds for 10–14 days\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe multi-stage fermentation is the defining step — a 24-hour in-cherry hold begins developing complexity before de-pulping, followed by a dual fermentation of 24 hours dry and 12 hours wet, building exceptional aromatic depth and clean structure while the Grade 1 density separation ensures only the finest beans proceed to drying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA debut lot of rare elevation and remarkable finesse from one of Gedeb's highest-altitude sites — peach tea delicacy, cool melon sweetness, and a lingering jasmine florality that speaks clearly of what 2,450 MASL in Ethiopia can produce.
