This coffee comes from Tsegay Hagos Tesfaye's Sasaba processing station in Bule Hora, Kercha district, Ethiopia. Farmers hand-pick ripe cherries and bring them to Sasaba for processing. Cherries are sorted for quality and dried on raised beds in the sun to 12% moisture, then sorted again before export. Natural processed with classic Ethiopian character featuring cocoa and sweet blueberry jam flavor notes.
PERC Coffee was founded in 2010 by Philip Brown in Savannah, Georgia, beginning with a Diedrich IR 12 roaster sourced from eBay and initial deliveries made by bike and backpack. The roastery operates from a restored warehouse alongside an organic community garden, embedding sustainability into both coffee sourcing and physical space. Brown sources colorful coffees from various origins, prioritizing long term producer relationships that allow consistency and trust building. The roasting philosophy centers on small batch profiles crafted to maximize sweetness and varietal character, while monthly free public cupping sessions invite the community into the sensory experience of specialty coffee.
