Presentation of the Sidamo Region:
The Sidamo region lies in southern Ethiopia, close to the Kenyan border. It takes its name from the Sidama people, an ethnic group native to south-central Ethiopia. With its rich soils, high altitudes and favourable climate, the region offers ideal conditions for growing exceptional coffee.
Coffee plants are traditionally grown under the shade of forest trees, allowing the cherries to mature slowly and develop complex flavours. The coffee is carefully hand-picked, sorted and then washed, a processing method that helps create a bright, clean cup with lively acidity.
Sidamo coffee accounts for around 11% of Ethiopia’s coffee production and is particularly prized when processed using the washed method.

A Bit of Background...
Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee, exclusively grows Arabica coffee at altitudes ranging from 1,500 to 2,300 metres above sea level.
The higher the coffee is grown on the country's plateaus, the more distinctive its flavour profile and aromatic intensity.
Ethiopian coffees are traditionally known as Moka coffees, named after the historic port of Mocha in Yemen, from which they were once exported. There are many different varieties of Moka coffee.
With around 400,000 hectares dedicated to coffee cultivation, coffee plays a key role in the Ethiopian economy and is one of the country's main export products.
Ethiopia is one of the world's leading coffee producers and exporters, with around 60% of its annual production exported each year.
Coffee is grown under natural forest shade (15%), in semi-forest areas (35%), alongside other crops (35%) and on more intensive farms (15%).
Around 80% of Ethiopian coffee is naturally processed, while the remaining 20% is washed.
Very few Ethiopian coffee farmers use chemical products on their crops. Although much of the country's coffee could qualify as organic, certification remains uncommon due to the associated costs.

Lugat
The type of roast will affect the balance of flavours (bitterness, acidity, sweetness, etc.) and reveal the aromas of the terroir to a greater or lesser extent.
The more the coffee is roasted the more its colour will change (from light to dark). The darker the roast, the more the aromatic notes are lost in favour of the roasting notes.
All our coffees have been placed in a colorimeter by our experts in order to compare the roast intensity.
The aromatic groups describe the tasting notes of your cup (hazelnut, chocolate, peach, white flowers, etc.).
If you don't know what your coffee profile is yet, we advise you to start with the most appreciated aromatic groups: rich & sweet or woody.
Please Note: this is not a flavoured coffee but aromatic notes noticed upon tasting.
The dominant aromatic group represents the most perceptible notes and the secondary group, the more subtle notes present in the cup.
Traditional Coffees (classic and superior) are the most common in the various distribution channels.
Specialty Coffees (rated 80-100) are among the best coffees in the world and represent less than 10% of world production. These are flawless coffees that offer unique tasting notes from one terroir (or even plot) to another.
Attributed by “Q Graders”, a coffee's /100 score is determined by the quality of the beans and the result in the cup. It is advisable to progressively move towards coffees with higher scores.
