About product

“BLACK CROW WHITE PIGEON”. EXTRAORDINARY COFFEE STORIES.

Chapter 3

The White Pigeon presents: 

Seemingly out of nowhere, the rich aroma of fragrant jasmine starts tickling your nose gently. It’s soon joined by sweet blueberry and blackberry notes. The luscious aftertaste this unique experience leaves you with is bound to be hard to top… 

Flying high above the Ethiopian region of Guji in southern Oromia, one can admire the golden coffee plantations of the Shakisso estate. These fields are home to some of Ethiopia’s oldest arabica subspecies. The luscious estate is surrounded by numerous gold mines—which is why the land is punctuated by holes dug by the local gold diggers. Although this certainly does result in additional dangers and challenges that Guji’s coffee farmers must overcome, the extraordinary flavour of their harvest makes every bit of hardship worth it.

What's the difference between specialty coffee beans and regular ones?

Specialty coffee includes only the world’s best-rated varieties. Who rates it and how do they do that, you wonder? Well, the rating is in the hands of certified coffee tasters. They evaluate the quality of the coffee they’re presented with based on the scale created by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Four criteria are assessed: origin, the appearance of green beans, the aroma of the prepared brew, and its flavour characteristics. Only coffees that end up scoring somewhere between 80 and 100 points can be rightfully referred to as “specialty”.

How does the washed processing method affect the flavour of coffee?

When using the washed process, beans are first separated from the cherries, then fermented and dried. Coffee processed in this manner acquires a particularly “clean” taste, which makes the dominant notes easier to identify. It’s often fruitier too.

How much acidity is there in the flavour of this coffee?

“Ethiopia Shakisso” is one of our finest African specialty coffees. Like most coffees from this region, it boasts some vivid acidity, which is valued by coffee connoisseurs all over the world. Keep in mind that this sort of acidity has nothing to do with the overly acidic taste of low-quality coffee. Unlike the latter, this one’s pleasantly sweet, fruity and deliciously berryish. Give it a try and see for yourself!
