Tasting Notes of Freeze-dried Strawberry and Stewed Apple
Ayla, named after the niece of Testi Coffee's founder, Mr. Faysal A. Yonis, is a washing station in Ethiopia's Sidama zone. Known for producing exceptional, fruit-forward coffees, Sidama's high altitude and cool climate contribute to the complexity of its flavours. Ayla collaborates with hundreds of independent growers, whose small farms average just 1–2 hectares.
This lot, featuring JARC 74112 and 74110 varieties, is part of Testi Coffee’s Premium Cherry Selection initiative, which ensures top-tier quality through careful growing, harvesting, and processing practices. Hand-picked cherries are carefully sorted at the wet mill to remove defects before drying on raised African beds for 15–18 days. Roasted for filter, this coffee shines with vibrant fruit forward sweetness and delightful acidity. It’s seriously delicious.
