Questions

Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, answered

Everything worth knowing before your first bag.

What does Ethiopian Yirgacheffe coffee taste like?

Besa’s Ethiopian Yirgacheffe tastes like bright citrus, sweet honey, and soft floral notes. It’s lively and aromatic — the brightest coffee in our lineup.

Where is Yirgacheffe coffee from?

Yirgacheffe is a region in southern Ethiopia — the birthplace of coffee itself. Its high-altitude farms grow heirloom varietals prized for their floral and citrus character.

What roast level is Besa’s Ethiopian Yirgacheffe?

A light-medium roast. Roasting it lighter preserves the brightness, florals, and citrus that make Yirgacheffe special. A dark roast would flatten those notes.

How fresh is the coffee when it arrives?

Besa roasts only after you order. Your Ethiopian Yirgacheffe ships 1 to 2 days after roasting, so it arrives at peak flavor — days off the roast, not months.

How fast will it arrive?

Local delivery is free within 25 miles of Kemah, TX 77565 and arrives in 1 to 2 days. Shipping anywhere else in the US is a 4.95 flat rate, free on orders of $48 or more.

Is it whole bean or ground?

Your choice at checkout. Whole bean if you grind at home (freshest), medium grind for drip coffee makers, or coarse grind for French press.

What’s the best way to brew Ethiopian Yirgacheffe?

Pour-over (V60 or Chemex) shows it off best, letting the florals and citrus shine. It also brews well as drip. For espresso, drink it straight — milk buries the delicate notes.

What if I don’t love it?

We refund you. Love it or your money back.
