Ethiopia Bensa is a delicious natural processed coffee from the Sidama region of Ethiopia. This natural processed coffee is a very approachable and balanced light roast.
Expect a smooth light body with notes of blackberry, lemon and a sweetness that reminds of shortbread cookies for filter brewing. As a light roast espresso, you will experience intense blackberry, lemon, and grape candy in a very sweet and fruity shot.

What's the turnaround time for coffee orders?
Coffee is typically roasted on Mondays and shipped out the next day following QC. It is possible that your coffee is deemed fresh enough to ship if I have any roasted stock and shipped out soon after ordering. e.g. an order is placed on Thursday and I still have some of that coffee that was roasted on Monday, then I may be able to ship right away.
