This coffee is like a memory of a hot summer day when the sun shone until late evening and the scent of flowers was in the air – Ethiopia Yirgacheffe Mengeche Derso from TheBarnroastery offers an experience that is both fresh and full-bodied. The cup combines notes of cola,fresh blueberries, and juicy lemon, complemented by a hint of delicate floral aroma that envelops the coffee in light elegance. Each sip unfolds from juicy sweetness to sparkling acidity and ends with a smooth, sweet finish. It is a coffee that will delight all the senses – perfectly balanced, as we have come to expect from The Barn.
Behind this lot is Mr. Mengeche Derso, a farmer with decades of experience who, together with his four children, carefully tends to each coffee tree. His farm is located in the legendary Yirgacheffe region , the cradle of Ethiopian coffee, where ideal conditions give birth to beans with an unmistakable character. The local microclimate, rich soil, and manual processing create a unique flavor that can be tasted in every cup. Derso works with respect for nature and the community—with the goal of bringing the best of Ethiopia to roasters and coffee lovers around the world.
The coffee is naturally processed, which enhances its fullness and natural fruity sweetness. Ripe cherries are dried whole on raised beds to preserve maximum flavor and aroma. This process brings out the typical "cola" depth, blueberry and citrus notes that unfold with every sip. The result is a cup that perfectly captures what makes Ethiopian coffees so unforgettable—purity, freshness, and unbridled beauty.
