Elevated Purity: Elto Elora [Natural] {Omni}
Sourced from the staggering altitudes of Arbegona, Sidama, the Elto Elora is a testament to the elegance of Ethiopian terroir. At 2200 MASL, the maturation process slows to a crawl, allowing the 74110 and 74112 varietals to develop a dense, complex sugar structure. This lot, produced by Eliyas Dukamo & Atiklit Dejene, represents the pinnacle of traditional natural processing refined through modern quality control.
The Terroir of Arbegona
Arbegona is one of the highest coffee-growing regions in Ethiopia, and this altitude is immediately evident in the cup's crystalline structure. The Natural Process applied here is meticulously managed to avoid over-fermentation, preserving the delicate floral attributes of the Sidama profile while enhancing the weight and sweetness of the fruit. The result is a cup that bridges the gap between the wild intensity of a natural and the refined clarity of a washed coffee.

Technical Brewing Protocol
Because of its high density and altitude, this coffee thrives with a slightly higher extraction temperature to unlock its full sweetness. We recommend a soft-pour filter method to highlight its tea-like structure:
- Dose: 13.5g coffee / 220g water
- Grind: Medium (Approx. 24-26 clicks on Comandante C40)
- Temperature: 94°C – 96°C (201°F – 205°F)
- Method: A gentle 45g bloom followed by two steady circular pours to maintain thermal stability and encourage a clean, vibrant finish.
