About the coffee:
Bombe is named after Bombe mountains in the Sidama region, which is located south from the Bombe washing station. This site is the culmination of several years of hard work and preparation from Sidama coffee man Asefa Dukamo and his family.
The outgrowers delivering to Bombe live high up in the lush and lovely Bombe mountain valley. They are part of a member organization consisting of 667 producers in various parts of the mountain range.
Natural process coffees from Sidama are traditionally “berry forward” coffees. And while this coffee does have a clean blueberry note, it’s primarily a citrus and tropical fruit leaning coffee.
While hot, the coffee presents juicy and mouthwatering, and as it cools, a really delicate bergamot florality presents itself. It adds a nice layer of complexity and clarity to the cup.
