Ethiopia Abel Guribea Natural | Hambela (Single Origin Espresso)

Highlights

“Guribea sits in the highlands of Hambela, West Guji, at 2,350 metres, where cool mountain air and wide day-to-night temperature swings slow cherry maturation and give sweetness and aroma time to build. West Guji's small plots, fertile soils and indigenous varieties have long made it one of Ethiopia's most distinctive growing regions. This lot is dried as whole natural cherries, the traditional method that keeps the fruit intact and pushes the cup toward layered sweetness and expressive aromatics. Manta Bay roasts it for espresso and keeps development light, so the florals stay lifted and the papaya and yellow peach read as juicy fruit rather than jam.”
