🌱 5 LBS Green (Un-Roasted) Arabica Coffee BeansEthiopian Lekempti | Grade 4 | Natural (Unwashed)
Classic Ethiopian natural-process green coffee, known for its mocha depth, dark fruit sweetness, and smooth, balanced body. A favorite for roasters who love bold aromatics without sharp acidity.
☕ Cup Profile
Produces a rich, fruit-forward cup with chocolate undertones and dark berry notes. Compared to brighter washed Ethiopians, Lekempti offers a smoother, rounder profile with gentle acidity and satisfying depth.
🌍 Origin – Lekempti, Ethiopia
Lekempti coffee is grown in the Wollega and Ghimbi regions, delivering a cup profile similar to Harrar longberry coffees—low to mild acidity, balanced body, and distinctive dark fruit character.
The elevation and climate allow for slow cherry maturation, enhancing sweetness and complexity.
🌿 Processing – Natural / Unwashed
Coffee cherries are dried with the fruit intact
No washing prior to drying
Allows sugars from the fruit to infuse into the bean
Natural processing is responsible for the coffee’s mocha richness, berry sweetness, and heavier mouthfeel, making it ideal for medium to dark roast profiles.
