Seasonal Filter - Ethiopia Alaka

At Sneaker Laundry LAB, we believe in combining the perfect brew with the perfect clean. Our cafe experience inspired us to bring our specially curated coffee beans to your doorstep, so you can enjoy the same rich flavors we serve in-store, wherever you are.

This single origin coffee from the Guji region of Ethiopia is a coffee lover's dream, with its complex flavours of Plum Reduction, Black Forest Cake and Blackberry, it is sure to please even the most discerning palate.

This lot is produced via the team at G&F (Gizaw and Frehiwot), Alemayehu (Gizaw’ s father) produced coffee from his large privately owned coffee farms in the surrounding areas of Yirgacheffe until the new socialist government emerged in 1974 and nationalized his farms.
Scarred by these events, the then young Gizaw did not see any future in farm ownership due to the harsh new government policies. Instead, he shifted his focus to coffee processing, supplying in a modern approach in pursuit of his father’s vision with his wife, Frehiwot.
Ripe cherries are delivered to wet-mill where they are floated for defects, graded, and then placed on raised African beds, coffee is shaded between 12-3pm and turned frequently for steady drying until it reaches 11.5% in around 20-30 days.

If a single origin coffee that is both complex and delicious is the what you are wanting, then Ethiopia Guji Alaka is the perfect choice for your filter brewing.
