ABYSSINIA FULL WASHED — GAYO, ACEH

Abyssinia takes its name from the historical name for Ethiopia, but the plants now found in Aceh were brought here by Dutch researcher P.J.S. Cramer and went on to develop in the Gayo Highlands.

Descended from Typica, Abyssinia produces elongated beans and grows into large trees that require more land while yielding less per hectare than modern varieties. That is the simple reason Abyssinia has never become a widely cultivated coffee.

This lot is processed using the full-washed method, and that choice is deliberate. Full washing does not add the flavor layers associated with fruit fermentation, allowing the variety and terroir themselves to take center stage in the cup.

Our potential notes point toward chocolate, black tea, and orange-like citric acidity, from Panji Mulia, Bener Meriah, grown at an altitude of 1,450–1,500 meters above sea level.

If you want to get to know Abyssinia, start here before moving on to its anaerobic counterpart.

Start with the variety. Taste the terroir. Then explore what fermentation can change.

POTENTIAL NOTES >>

Chocolate | Black Tea | Orange-Like Citric Acidity

We call them potential notes, not tasting notes. These are green beans, not roasted coffee. What ends up in the cup depends on your roasting profile. We simply provide a starting point.

EVERY LOT IS QUALITY-CHECKED >>

Origin, grade, processing method, moisture, density, and defect count.

We inspect, store, and document every lot. Coffee is not magic. Coffee is a process, and processes can be tested.

TRIPLE-PICK QUALITY ASSURANCE

Why Is Our Green Bean Quality More Transparent?

Most marketplace sellers claim Grade 1 quality based on a single pass through a coarse mechanical sorting machine.

At Coffest Roastery, we implement three stages of physical sorting and refinement:

1. Suton Machine

Removes foreign materials such as stones, twigs, dust, broken beans, and residual husks that make it through earlier processing stages.

2. Optical Sorting Machine (SORTEX)

Uses modern optical sensor technology to eject black beans, sour beans, and beans with defects caused by insect damage.

3. Hand Sorting (Manual Pick)

Our expert team performs the final manual inspection to remove fungus-damaged beans and bring the defect count as close to zero as possible.

Drying is carried out using indirect sunlight through a greenhouse-effect technique to preserve optimal flavor potential.
