And of all Ethiopian coffee growing regions Yirgacheffe is perhaps the most well-known and recognised. There is a certain romanticism that exists in the traditional bright, floral and complex qualities of Ethiopian coffees that so many of us never tire of experiencing. Spanning a remarkable topographic rollercoaster, the ECX Area of Yirgacheffe climbs from 1200 masl in the East of the Gedeo Zone, up to 3200 masl in the West, with only 30km in between. \u003cbr\u003eThis dramatic expanse of height has led to a bio-diverse environment where native trees grow at the altitude in which they benefit most, including the many wild mutations of coffee varietals – this must be why the cup profiles of Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffees are just so unique. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Ethiopian Coffee Exchange (ECX) recognises all coffees from this Area as ‘Yirgacheffe’, however the woreda Yirgacheffe only makes up part of the Gedeo Zone where all these coffees come from. Other commonly known woredas and kebeles that fall into the Yirgacheffe Area include Kochere, Aricha, Idido, Konga, Chelelektu and more. The Gedeo Zone is an exclave of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People’s Region (SNNPR) in Southwest Ethiopia, and is surrounded by the Sidama Region to the north and the Oromia Region to the East, West and South. Coffees are grown and harvested in small-holder farmers’ backyards (known as ‘garden coffee’) in the Yirgacheffe region.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Symmetry Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"100g","offer_id":48199137853627,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g","offer_id":48199137820859,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2935\/8350\/files\/Ethiopia_Chelbesa_washed_FILTER.jpg?v=1785365829","url":"https:\/\/symmetrycoffeeroasters.com.au\/products\/ethiopia-chelbesa-washed-light-roast","provider":"Symmetry Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
