Bombe Basha Special RH

About This Coffee

This Red Honey coffee comes from the Bombe kebele in the Bensa district of Sidama, Ethiopia, grown at elevations between 2,100 and 2,250 meters. Produced by Basha Bekele and approximately 500 local smallholder farmers, the coffee is processed using the Red Honey method where cherries are partially depulped, leaving substantial mucilage on the parchment before drying. This enhances sweetness and texture while preserving clarity. The coffee features heirloom and landrace varieties and is Grade 1. The cup reveals notes of black forest cake and brown sugar, lifted by pomegranate brightness and soft rose florals, finishing with a refined black tea structure.

Moving Coffee Roastery

Founded in 2016 by Japanese Canadian roaster Takuro Watanabe, Moving Coffee Roastery brings a distinctly Japanese sensibility to Vancouver's Mount Pleasant neighborhood. The name reflects a commitment to constantly evolving and pushing forward in the craft. Takuro roasts on a Fuji Royal, a Japanese brand prized for precision, producing light profiles that emphasize clarity and delicate flavor development across single origins from Ethiopia, Kenya, Colombia, Guatemala, Panama, and select Geisha varieties. The minimalist Japanese aesthetic of the space, all wood, white, and concrete, mirrors the meticulous attention to detail that goes into every brew and roast. Wholesale partnerships are kept deliberately selective, limited to cafes that share the same quality standards, and a subscription service delivers carefully curated monthly selections.
