LIMU COFFEE
COFFEE ARABICA
Characterized by its winey aftertaste, this washed coffee delivers a vibrant, balanced cup with sharp acidity and a classic balanced taste.
Region: Regarded as secondary to Sidamo and Yirgacheffe, Limu washed coffee still has a distinctive winey flavour. The Limu bean is flatter than the other washed coffees. Although predominantly a smallholder produced coffee, there are some government-owned plantations in Limu.
