Frequently Bought Together
Renowned globally for its bright, complex, and aromatic cup profile, Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Grade 2 hails from one of the world’s most iconic coffee-growing regions in southern Ethiopia’s Sidamo zone. Recognized as a birthplace of Arabica coffee, Yirgacheffe is a micro-region famous for producing washed coffees with exceptional clarity and floral vibrancy.
Grown at elevations between 1,700–2,200 MASL, this coffee benefits from ideal highland growing conditions. Cultivated by smallholder farmers who interplant coffee with food crops, this sustainable, community-based method supports both land health and local livelihoods. The coffee is processed using the washed (wet) method, bringing out its clean and nuanced flavour profile.
In the cup: Aromatics of dried red fruits, citrus, and vanilla biscuit lead into layered flavours of toasted tea, lemon zest, caramel, and spiced cookies with delicate floral notes. The finish offers hints of roasted nuts and caramel, with low acidity and a smooth medium body.
Perfect for specialty roasters seeking a classic Yirgacheffe profile with floral elegance, tea-like clarity, and a smooth, balanced finish.

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.
Green coffee beans that require roasting before brewing. Customers said the product had a 'medicinal' taste when ground fine and brewed with a Moka pot. The beans may require proper roasting to achieve desired flavor profiles. Some shoppers found the taste not what they expected.
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.
