Embark on a vibrant journey with Yirga Skies Ethiopia Blend, where bright citrus, dried fruit, and floral notes dance in every cup.

Process: Natural and Washed

Roast: Light

Take flight with the vibrant Yirga Skies Ethiopia Blend, a masterful combination of washed and natural-processed coffees sourced from smallholder farmers at elevations of 1800–2200 masl. Grown in fertile vertisol soils, this blend captures Ethiopia’s legendary coffee heritage in every sip.

Expertly crafted, Yirga Skies marries the crisp clarity of washed processing with the lush depth of natural processing. Cherries are hand-sorted, with washed lots fermented for 36–48 hours before sun-drying, and naturals dried slowly on raised beds to amplify their fruit-forward character. The result is a radiant cup brimming with bright citrus, dried fruit (apricot and raisin), and delicate floral notes like jasmine and hibiscus, all wrapped in a smooth, medium body.

Ethically sourced through partnerships that uplift local farmers, this blend celebrates the artistry of specialty coffee. Yirga Skies delivers a luminous, flavorful experience that’s perfect for any coffee lover’s daily ritual.

We mainly enjoy this coffee as pour over but it does well in all brew methods.  For pour over, try a 1:16.5 ratio and a kettle temperature of 205°.  

For espresso, a good starting point is: 17 grams in and 42 grams out in 25-33 seconds with a boiler temp of 203°.  Happy Brewing!
