We just finished cupping Ethiopia Sidamo Moredocofe organic. It is a very aromatic coffee. Dry aroma reminds of peach and ripe (maybe even overripe) cherry. I was surprised how well the coffee tastes in a both light and dark roasts. Acidity is very low, while the body is full. In the cup the coffee is rich and rustic, one can listen to the taste of peach, ripe cherry and a hint of warm spice. Very pleasant cup. Medium and dark roast give a fuller mouthfeel and brings out the warm spice flavour. Coffee has a pleasant and lasting aftertaste.
Sidamo is a province in Ethiopia. The province is known for its high-quality coffee. Moredocofe is a cooperative, which units small farmers producing organic coffee.
The farms are located in the range of 1800 meters above the sea level and, in general, are slightly higher than many other farms in Ethiopia. At high elevation the coffee cherry grows slower and produces a dencer bean. The coffee trees in Moredocofe grow in the wild in the natural forest. Perhaps, one of the reasons for naming the co-op Moredocofe, which stands for More Direct Organic coffee.
