Single Origin of the Month - Filter
$24.00
Let us surprise you with whatever the single origin is this month! Be brave and let us transport you across the globe!!!
This single origin is a filter roast. It works best through slow brew processes such as Chemex, Pour Overs, Batch Brews, Cold Brews, etc. The flavours are more subtle than in an espresso roast so no milk or sugar is required.

Natural coffee from Ethiopia, funky and fruity! Letting the coffee dry in its cherry is the traditional way of processing coffee for personal consumption and for commodity coffee in Ethiopia. It is a sensitive process that can give the coffee a fermented taste profile, unless it is done carefully. At Adola, the grade one coffee cherries are carefully sorted and dry for over 25 days. The natural process suits the floral yet citric profile of Ethiopian coffee very well and keeps more vibrancy in the coffee that shines through the sweet flavour that the natural process adds to the cup.
If you require us to grind the beans for you - please specify what machine we are grinding it for or what setting to grind it on if we have previously provided you with one. This allows us to set up your order faster.
PLEASE NOTE: coffee is dispatched at the end of each week to ensure you get the freshest stuff!
