NOTE: All of our premium Arabica coffees are roasted to City+ to Full City roasts, showing minimal-to-no surface oils….we want all of the flavor to stay in the beans until the coffee is ground! Despite the additional descriptors, the first flavor and aroma you'll think of is "COFFEE".


Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Gelana Abaya natural process

Country of Origin: Ethiopia
Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Gelana Abaya natural process
TIP: You can save products to your favorites list if you log in
Thanks to the dedication of friends Emily and Mike McIntyre of Catalyst Coffee Consulting we are offering the Gelana Abaya/Semalo-Pride Mill in both natural and washed process variants…a great chance to compare side -by-side and see how top-shelf heirloom varietals shine in the hands of master processors. The Semalo project is relatively new and the McIntyres have been on the ground since the beginning working with the farms and the mill to elevate production and quality levels in this distant section of Yirgacheffe. Elevations range from 1850-2100 meters for the smallholder farmers.
The Gelana Abaya natural (as well as its washed brethren) process Grade 1 just arrived and is sparkling, deep-hued and fruit-forward. Another worthy comparison on your cupping table could be had with the Yirgacheffe Hafursa Co-op natural process, another McIntyre gem. Sterling coffees any method, drip being our favorite.

andrea with the goods
Business partner/roaster/barista extraordinaire Andrea Spella has the best espresso in Portland. When we acquired "Rossalina" we knew we were in for an extraordinary ride together.
"The Gelana Abaya is delicious -- blueberry flavor with funky cocoa and toasted coconut sweetness in the finish. The sample of the Kiamabara was everything I expect from a Kenya offering -- sparkling plum acidity, contrasting with a sweet but clean finish. So I thank you for the Kiamabara. It will difficult to decide which I will want for my next purchase."
