What Caffenation Specialty Coffee Roasters says about this coffee

Milky way with a herbal aftertaste

Juniper berry & apple

Region: Kochere, Yirgacheffe

Altitude: 1800 masl

Variety: Heirloom variety

Importer: Nordic Approach

Rob says: Tucked away in the village (or kebele) of CHELCHELE, in the district (woreda) of Kochere, right in the heart of Yirgacheffe, you’ll find the Chelchele washing station—quite the tongue twister, but even better in the cup. Washed Chelchele coffees are known for their sweet backbone, think toffee and soft almond, lifted by bright floral notes and a splash of citrus.

Of all Ethiopian regions, Yirgacheffe is our go-to for that elegant, tea-like and floral profile. It’s been part of the Caffenation story since day one in 2003—and it’s still going strong.

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.

A further 2 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.
