Ethiopian Limmu


Limmu coffee is renowned for its good cup, sweet, spicy/winey flavor and balanced body and is therefore sought after by many roasters. Washed Limmu coffee is one of the premium gourmet coffees worldwide. Very similar to Sidamo and Yirgacheffe - as one would expect since it they are right next to each other geographically. Generally speaking, Limmu coffee is different from its next door neighbors (Sidamo, Yirg) because of a slightly more citric snap to it. The bean is medium in size, has a distinctive rounded shape and greenish color.

Best roasted into a rolling first crack and brewed either press-pot (aka French Press) or drip brewer. Also makes for an interesting lighter roasted espresso (relative to generally darker roasted espresso style). Just make sure to let it rest for two to four days (four days is optimal).

Note: these are unroasted green coffee beans
