What Monks Coffee Roasters says about this coffee
This natural Sidama G1 from Bombe Station in the Bense District is an exceptional coffee from Ethiopia's most celebrated growing region — the Sidama zone in the Southern Nations has been cultivated for centuries at elevations between 1,500 and 2,200 metres.
Sidama produces some of the most distinctive coffees in the world, and the natural process is the reason why. Rather than washing the cherry away from the bean immediately after picking, the whole cherry is dried on raised beds in the sun for three to six weeks. During that time the sugars in the fruit slowly ferment and migrate into the bean, leaving behind a coffee with extraordinary body, sweetness, and complexity that a washed process simply cannot replicate.
In the cup you'll find a rich, full body with layers of ripe citrus — think blood orange and lemon zest — alongside jasmine florals and a lingering stone fruit sweetness on the finish. It's vibrant and clean, with none of the fermented edge that less careful natural processing can produce.
This coffee, curated for us from Coffee Quest shines as a filter brew. Try it in a Chemex or V60 at 94°C with a medium grind to let the floral and citrus notes come forward. Works…

What the roaster says about where it came from
We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.
How it sits among coffee from Ethiopia
Monks Coffee Roasters describe this coffee as fruity, citrus, floral. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ethiopia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.
Every family the roaster names is a common one for coffee from Ethiopia, so this reads as a typical example rather than an outlier.

A further 3 facts on this page were read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for them.
Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
