The washing station at Jigesa, near the town of Shakisso, was established by Testi Specialty Coffee in 2015, and now serves 850 local smallholder farmers, growing a mix of heirloom varieties at elevations ranging from 1950 – 2150 masl. Testi is deeply involved in the communities surrounding their network of washing stations, with a particular focus on providing access to education for farmer’s children.
This lot from Jigesa Washing Station totally blew us away with its clarity, balance and sweetness. As espresso, look forward to concentrated, cooked peach sweetness with loads of florals and black tea notes. Vista also works great for a more sweetness focused and round filter coffee.
