Finero Coffee Lab: Ethiopia – Daye Bensa Heirloom

Finero Coffee Lab: Ethiopia, Sidama – Daye Bensa Heirloom

Experience the balanced sophistication of a classic natural micro-lot cultivated in the heart of the world-renowned Sidama region. Sourced from the highly acclaimed Daye Bensa estate, this single-origin selection represents a flawless compilation of native Ethiopian Heirloom varieties.

Situated at an elite high-altitude range of 2100 to 2300 meters above sea level, the cherries are slowly coaxed to structural maturity by stark thermal shifts between warm sun-drenched days and crisp alpine nights. This slow development packs the seeds with dense, intricate organic compounds and deep fruit sugars.

Meticulously naturally processed, the whole cherries are slowly sun-dried on raised African beds to draw out an incredibly rich, wine-like depth. Roasted to an Ultra-Glitch (UG) Light Roast profile, the cup maintains a striking clarity while allowing the deep fruit characteristics to step forward alongside a warm, comforting confectionary finish. It stands as a refined, beautifully integrated expression of premium Sidama terroir—vibrantly sweet, exceptionally balanced, and crafted intentionally for the discerning palate.
