The appeal of Ethiopian coffee - BONGENCOFFEE ETHIOPIA HONEY

Ethiopia is an essential part of any discussion of global coffee culture. Known as the birthplace of coffee, this country has cultivated coffee with a diverse range of flavors thanks to its unique climate and long history. BONGEN COFFEE's "ETHIOPIA HONEY" is a cup of coffee with a honey-like flavor, just as its name suggests. It is processed using a natural process, resulting in a pleasant fruity flavor and natural sweetness.

Characteristics of Ethiopian coffee

Grown in fertile soil at high altitudes, Ethiopian coffee is known for its clean, vibrant flavor. Its exquisite blend of berry fruitiness, floral aroma, and soft, pleasant acidity has earned it a place among coffee lovers worldwide. ETHIOPIA HONEY is no exception, and one sip will fill your mouth with a mellow aroma and a gentle, honey-like sweetness.

The origin of the name "HONEY"

Generally, coffee with the word "honey" in its name refers to honey processed coffee, but BONGEN COFFEE's ETHIOPIA HONEY is different. Although it is processed using a natural process, it has a sweet flavor that is reminiscent of melted honey, hence the name "HONEY." This special flavor is born from the miraculous harmony of fruitiness and sweetness that is unique to natural processing.

The appeal of natural processes

The natural process is a processing method in which harvested coffee cherries are sun-dried, including the pulp. This allows the fruit's flavor to be fully transferred to the beans, resulting in a distinctive fruity and sweet flavor. ETHIOPIA HONEY is also produced using this method, resulting in a flavor that combines a gentle, elegant honey-like sweetness with a floral aroma.

BONGEN COFFEE's Commitment

At BONGEN COFFEE, we strive to roast coffee beans in a way that brings out their natural characteristics. ETHIOPIA HONEY is roasted from light to medium to maximize its mellow aroma and sweetness, and the roasting level is adjusted to achieve a harmonious balance between fruity acidity and smooth sweetness. Every time you sip, you can experience the essence of Ethiopia and the philosophy of BONGEN COFFEE.

How to enjoy Ethiopian coffee

ETHIOPIA HONEY's honey-like flavor is most pronounced when drunk black. Recommended as a morning wake-up drink or a refreshing afternoon snack. It also pairs exceptionally well with Japanese sweets, particularly yokan and dorayaki, creating a beautiful harmony between the fruitiness of the coffee and the sweetness of the sweets. It also complements iced coffee, bringing out its refreshing and vibrant flavor, making it the perfect summer drink.

summary

ETHIOPIA HONEY is a special coffee characterized by its rich fruitiness achieved through a natural process and a gentle sweetness reminiscent of honey. As its name suggests, a cup of "honey flavor" will bring a touch of luxury to your everyday life. Be sure to try ETHIOPIA HONEY at BONGEN COFFEE, where you can fully enjoy the charm of Ethiopia, the birthplace of coffee.
