Context
Sourced from the Arbegona microcatchment in Sidama's renowned coffee belt, Yaye arrives from Testi Coffee, a producer working with JARC varieties 74148 and 74158—research-backed cultivars developed for Ethiopian terroir. Market Lane Coffee presents this lot as a washed coffee, a processing method that typically emphasizes cleaner acidity and more defined floral or tea-like characteristics common to Ethiopian naturals and washed lots alike.
The specificity of varietal selection—particularly JARC material—reflects a growing focus on traceability at origin and in the cup. This lot offers insight into how microcatchment precision and deliberate varietal choice shape the expression of Sidama's distinctive profile.
