The first ever winner of COE Ethiopia
In 2020, ACE(Alliance of Coffee Excellence) held the very first Cup of Excellence for Ethiopia, the birth place of Arabica. Niguse is the one who won the very first COE session in Ethiopia. We have been carrying his coffees since 2021 and this is our 3rd purchase. Likewise those Ethiopia coffees we sourced this year, this lot is very uniform and well sorted.
74158 cultivar
As he won the first place of COE with this cultivar, 74158 became pretty renowned and popular amongst international coffee community. In our experience, his 74158 has iconic flavors of white peach and melon with transparent vibes and delicate acidity.
