Introducing Ethiopia Djimmah – ORGANIC, a delicious and high-quality coffee sourced from the beautiful country of Ethiopia. Etiopia Djimmah is wild and primitive, also known as “the mother of coffee”.
This organic coffee is not only incredibly tasty, but it also supports sustainable farming practices that are better for the environment and the farmers who grow it. By choosing Ethiopia Djimmah – ORGANIC, you are not only treating yourself to a rich and flavorful cup of coffee, but you are also making a positive impact on the world around you.
I encourage all of my fellow coffee enthusiasts to give Ethiopia Djimmah – ORGANIC a try and experience the unique flavors and aromas that this coffee has to offer.
It is characterized by an intense wine flavor with distinct notes of dark chocolate. Djimmah does not showcase its beautiful grain – its fruits are rather small and irregular. This is due to its wild origin which, however, hides the wealth of flavor. Ethiopia is considered the homeland of coffee, but the coffee began to be grown there quite late, due to the fact that the people of Ethiopia harvested enough coffee for their own needs from wild growing plants. To this day, coffee grows in the wild, and one of the naturally growing coffees in Ethiopia is Djimmah. It’s manually harvested from wild plants, so it is a fully natural & organic coffee.

Classification and Awarding of Coffee
Specialty coffee, a product of top-notch quality, scores over 80 points on a scale of 1-100. Only Coffea Arabica can earn such recognition. This species and grade of coffee boast remarkable aroma intensity and complex flavors, setting it apart from lower-grade types.
Body: ●●○○○
The sensation of “Density/Oiliness” occurs when sipping fresh, hot coffee. Assess the coffee’s consistency by taking a small sip and letting it linger on the tongue, optionally rubbing the tongue against the palate.
Acidity: ●●●●○
Acidity plays a significant role in full coffee flavor. It doesn’t make coffee sour or astringent; instead, it manifests as zesty and citrusy notes around the aroma, giving the brew character and a sharper edge.
Intensity: ●●●○○
The depth and richness of a brew, its initial impression, combine all the flavors’ intensities to define how invigorating it is. Lower intensity results in a milder coffee with more emphasis on aftertastes. Some associate high intensity with coffee’s weight or boldness, particularly evident in mid-high roasts.
Roast: ●●○○○
Roast refers to the roasting process’s duration, shaping the coffee bean’s true character. One coffee type can taste entirely different based on roast level, influencing the bouquet of aftertastes. Five common roasting levels are very low, light, medium, mid-high, and high (or dark). Delicate types like very low and light roast suit alternative extraction methods (dripper filter, Chemex, French press), while medium roasts excel in Moka Pots. Dark roasts, or espresso types, benefit from use in pressurized machines, yielding dense espresso with lasting, hazel-colored crema.
General Information
Flavor and Notes:
To identify flavor precisely, the Specialty Coffee Association of America created a ‘notes circle chart.’ This tool helps find tastes and aftertastes without expert knowledge and is used in coffee cupping. A 2016 circle chart example is shown below.
Notes Circle Chart – What is it and How Does it Work?
Countless chemical ingredients shape coffee brew flavor. Thus, coffee aftertastes, flavors, and notes become versatile and complex. The chart by the Specialty Coffee Association of America identifies the most characteristic ones, placing easily identifiable notes near the center and more subtle ones towards the edges. By following notes from the middle to the rim, anyone can recognize a coffee’s unique profile without being a connoisseur. This classification method allows everyday drinkers to explore their favorite drink further, enhancing the usual experience.
Our Coffee Packaging Method
Our coffee is packed in innovative, environmentally friendly “Aroma Save” bags, designed to preserve the original coffee aroma without introducing new smells. Implemented with a ventilation system, the “ECO/Kraft” design allows air to exit the bag while preventing entry, enabling enthusiasts to smell the coffee without opening the bag. A special zip-lock mechanism provides a 100% seal, allowing repeated openings without additional equipment. We recycle the paper used in our bags, minimizing environmental impact by avoiding excessive prints. Our priority is the coffee’s content, not the wrapping, ensuring quality and freshness with hermetically sealed, high-quality containers free from exposure and unwanted aromas.
Coffee Making Tips
For optimal results, grind coffee just before use, considering the right grade for your device. Typically, 1.5-2 teaspoons (around 7 grams) suffice for a cup. Use water at approximately 95°C.
Types of Coffee Grinding and Its Meaning
Coffee grinding employs various methods—manual, electric, or even mortar and pestle. What matters is the grind’s fineness rather than the device used. A common belief suggests that longer brewing requires coarser grounds, but this notion remains vague. What truly matters is the brewing style and device. If pouring hot water over coffee grounds, ensure they aren’t too fine to prevent clogging. Fine grinds suit pressure-based machines like Moka Pots, Siphon Coffee Makers, Aeropresses, and Espresso Machines. Coarser grinds require little to no pressure, suiting filter papers, percolators, or thermal coffee makers. Turkish Coffee Pots defy norms, using fine coffee powder mixed directly with water. Submerged partially in hot sand, the brew rises and bubbles, undergoing this process twice more—a time-honored method predating modern devices.
Coffee Grinding Devices
After emphasizing grind types’ importance, let’s delve into coffee grinding itself. Choosing a coffee grinder influences precision. Bladed electric grinders are popular but may overheat coffee, releasing essential oils too quickly and diminishing aroma. Mill grinders, with two abrasive surfaces or ‘teeth,’ are superior, especially if made from non-corrosive metal. Most mill grinders allow grind adjustments, with those lacking set programs offering precise control. A broader spectrum enables diverse coffee types.
