Ethiopia Jigesa Washed
Sugary sweet, with honeydew melon, blueberry, green apple and lingering lemon blossom florals. Elegant and complex.
Jigesa is a washing station located in the Shakisso woreda of Ethiopia's Guji zone. It is privately owned by Testi Coffee, a family-run business founded by Mr. Faysel A. Yonis, and is named after the local village of Jigesa. With an altitude of 1,740 meters above sea level, Jigesa produces excellent washed and naturally processed coffee. The washing station was established in 2014 and employs around 250-260 seasonal workers, of which approximately 200 are women who hand-sort parchment. The remaining 50 workers are employed at the onsite dry mill. During harvest season, freshly picked coffee cherries are delivered daily by 500 independent outgrowers from the nearby kebele of Dambi Uddo and collection points in Wese and Suke.

NORMCORE STYLE SUPER LIGHT ROASTING
We roast our single-origin coffees as lightly as possible. It's often lighter than the standard light-roast profile (Our development time ratio is 8-10%, while a typical light roast's ratio is around 13-16%).
Regardless of its origin, varietal or process, our approach is to maximise the flavour profile of the coffee by minimising flavours caused by roasting. Our single-origin coffees have a delightful silky texture and well-balanced taste, despite being lightly roasted.
DAMN GOOD COFFEE ONLY.
