How it sits among coffee from Ethiopia

How often roasters use each flavour family to describe coffee from Ethiopia: 539 of 857 carry notes. The dashed outline is the whole catalogue. These are the roasters’ own words, grouped — not our tasting, and not a measurement.

Square Bean Coffee describe this coffee as caramel and sweet, chocolate, spice, earthy. The filled shape is how often roasters use each family across coffee from Ethiopia; the rings on the rim are this coffee’s own.

earthy and spice are unusual here — 3% of coffee from Ethiopia are described that way, and 7% of coffee from Ethiopia are described that way.

What the roaster says about where it came from

Country

Ethiopia, Uganda, India, Congo

Farm or estate

India Robusta

Process

washed, natural

Harvest

2025

Not stated

region, producer, variety, altitude, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

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.

Where each fact came from

Species

“Uganda is the birthplace of Robusta — Coffea canephora is indigenous to the country — and this lot represents what the variety can achieve when treated with the same care as specialty Arabica.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Decaffeinated

“Is there a decaf robusta coffee?” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Flavour families

It is washed rather than natural, so it tastes different to this Uganda lot: the supplier describes toffee, cocoa and biscuit, where the Uganda is baker's chocolate, black pepper and smoke… part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Country of origin

“If you want a lower-caffeine option in the meantime, our Ethiopia Lala Salama Sparkling Water Decaf is decaffeinated without chemical solvents — a different origin and process, but a genuine low-caffeine alternative.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Processing

“India Kaapi Royale Robusta Washed comes from a single estate: Raxidi Estate in Sakleshpur, run by a fourth-generation producer.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Brew methods

Perfect for: Espresso drinkers who want maximum body and crema… part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Roast level

Maximum body and crema, minimal acidity — exactly what espresso Robusta should deliver. How to Brew Best methods: Espresso machine, moka pot, bean-to-cup Water temperature: 90–92°C — the dark roast means lower temperature prevents bitterness Ratio: Start at 1:2 and adjust — Robusta's density means it extracts differently to Arabica, so dial in carefully If your shot tastes bitter:… part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Tasting notes

A further 4 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.
