Assefa Korma

The area lies just outside Yirgacheffe town, with Fisega Genet as the nearest small town — connecting Kochore to one of Ethiopia's most celebrated coffee landscapes while holding onto its quieter, rural character. Here, coffee is grown organically by smallholder farmers across the Kochore and Kishsha areas, where farming remains closely tied to tradition, patience, and careful stewardship of the land. Kochore is a newly established station, still in the early stages of its development. Today it works with around 56 local coffee suppliers under producer Assefa Korma, with plans to grow as its infrastructure and capacity expand.

Chemex
Great notes of caramel and pecan. A very nice and bright cup. I enjoyed these notes compared to more berry oriented notes of other coffees in my rotation. I was excited to taste it during the week. I didn't taste the grapefruit in my cups, but that's ok. It was not too acidic that way.

A solid cup. Nothing really stand out just a nice sweet cup with warmer caramel pecan overtones.

its alright, very standard washed coffee. notes were a bit misleading for me, primarily tasted caramel and pacan. otherwise, nothing mind blowing. 1:16.6, Medium-Coarse, T90 filter, 90-95C, 2x bloom 45s each, 3x the weight of coffee, then final circular pour until desired weight. TBT: around 2:30.

Bon café dans son ensemble. On goute bien les notes d’agrumes. Cependant, les notes de caramel et de noix sont trop présente à mon gout. On dirait plus une torréfaction moyenne que light.

A very classic Ethiopian. Terroir and origin characteristics shine
