<Story>

Production in this region began in the 1950s, making it relatively new in terms of coffee production culture, but due to its distinctive flavor similar to black tea and a full-bodied cup that is reminiscent of wine, coffee from the Yirgacheffe region has quickly become traded under the name 'Yirgacheffe'.

Nowadays, due to its popularity in the specialty coffee markets of the United States and Northern Europe, it has become one of the most difficult coffees to obtain, but it is cultivated in a limited area without expanding its production area. It is grown in the beautiful Yirgacheffe region, surrounded by rivers, forests and lakes. A cup of coffee from this exceptional coffee will clear your mind.
