Frequently Bought Together
From the lush highlands of Ethiopia’s Jimma Zone, Gera District, these Limu Grade 2 green coffee beans are a perfect choice for home roasters seeking a balanced and flavourful cup.
Grown at 1,400–2,100 masl under natural forest shade, Limu coffees are carefully handpicked by smallholder farmers and fully washed before being sun-dried. This traditional process helps preserve the region’s distinct flavour profile.
While Limu shares the floral and citrus brightness of Ethiopia’s famous Yirgacheffe and Sidamo coffees, it is known for its fuller body and smooth mouthfeel.
In the cup: Expect aromas of roasted nuts, burnt caramel, and red apple skin. Flavours open with vanilla cookie, cocoa, and burnt caramel, lifted by subtle floral hints of lemon blossom. Medium, peach-like acidity leads to a lingering aftertaste of caramelised nuts.
Perfect for medium roasts to highlight its balance of body and acidity, or slightly darker roasts to emphasise the cocoa and caramel notes.

Grade 2 beans are very high quality, with only minor imperfections and a clean, consistent flavour. They are just one step below the top “Grade 1” specialty beans, but still deliver an excellent cup that’s smooth, balanced, and great for home roasting.
Used the explore at l3.2 has become fav bit on sweet side
Seems okay and we will be mixing with Colombia Medellin and El Salvador beans.
These beans add more sweetness to our blend of these plus Brazil Cerrado and Colombie Medalin. We add a third of each to our blend and have found this mixture perfect for our tast.
A very strong bean with good flavour that we like. We have also purchased Brazil Cerado and El Salvador Minto beans and by blending all three together in exact proportions we have a very smooth mix.
Medicinal. I ground fine and moca potted with a Bialeti. Not what I expected.
Good beans. Dry. Well packed in vacuum bags. Prompt delivery.
Excellent taste.
An excellent choice for my first green beans for my new Kaffelogic Nano. They roasted up well and smelled fantastic. I am still using them as I bought a kg.
Really enjoying this bean. Will buy again. Full bodied,smooth and rich flavour.
