About Wolde Hirbe of Ethiopia
While most Ethiopian coffees come from co-ops and are a collection of beans from multiple small farms, this coffee was grown by a single producer on one, slightly larger, farm. This means that green coffee they produce has been grown in a manner that provides greater precision in developing the flavor profile of the coffee. In addition to more intentional growing practices, this coffee is more selectively picked and then dried on raised beds. The drying process takes a bit longer at this farm, which is beneficial to the coffee in developing its flavors and quality. They spread the coffee out on the raised-beds in one layer, rather than the common practice of laying down multiple layers that need to be turned/stirred to make sure the coffee dries evenly. The care and control that the farmers use when producing this coffee is truly something that comes through when tasting the final product - a clean, refined, and delicious brew.

Noble Coffee Roasting
Eight-time Good Food Award winner (and ten-time finalist) Noble Coffee Roasting began, as many successful roasting companies do, in the garage of husband-wife team Jared and Carolyn Rennie, way back in 2007. Named after Jared's grandfather, Noble Duke, within two years Noble Coffee had moved to its current roastery/café location just off 4th street in the quirky, charming town of Ashland Oregon.
"We believe that amazing coffee starts by sourcing the highest quality green coffees from organic farms and cooperatives, continues in the crafting of coffees with great attention upon roasting, and ends in the fine details of brewing. We are fully devoted to this process."
