Ethiopia - [Sidamo G2 Natural] Medium Roast

Ethiopian Natural (Sidamo G2)
The Sidamo region of Southern Ethiopia holds the distinction as one of the three trademarked coffee regions of Ethiopia. Alongside Harrar and Yirgacheffe, Sidamo holds a Designation of Origin for coffee grown in the region.
 
Naturals are sun dried inside the cherry fruit so some of the fruit’s sweetness gets transferred into the seeds [coffee beans]. Naturals also change the center line in the bean to the same color as the roasted bean, so it is all dark instead of having a white “stripe” down the center.
 
Sidamo is well known for its production of “garden coffee”. The coffee is planted at low density, ranging from 1000 to 1800 trees per hectare and is mostly fertilized with organic matter. All of the coffee produced under this system is agronomically organic, but most is not certified as such.
