Ethiopia Guji Benti Nenqua G1 - Espresso

About This Coffee

This coffee is sourced from smallholder farmers in Hambella within the Guji zone of Ethiopia and processed at Benti Nenqua. Grown at elevations of 1,900–2,200 meters above sea level, the high altitude allows for slower cherry maturation and more complex sugar and aromatic development. Composed of Ethiopian Heirloom varietals, this coffee is fully washed—depulped, fermented, washed clean, and dried on raised beds. It holds Ethiopia's highest export grade, G1 (Grade One). Roasted specifically for espresso, it offers vibrant citrus acidity balanced by syrupy sweetness with jasmine, bergamot, lemon curd, yellow peach, and honey notes. The florals lift through the crema with a clean and elegant finish.

His Brew Roastery

His Brew Roastery was started in 2020 by brothers Josh and John in their parents' car porch in Shah Alam, using a 200g home roaster during Malaysia's lockdown. What began as a side project grew rapidly, moving to a commercial space in 2021 with a 3kg roaster before upgrading to a 6kg machine to meet demand. The roastery operates under a "No Fluff, Just Coffee" philosophy, letting each single origin speak for itself through small batch roasting and careful sourcing from Ethiopia, Colombia, Panama, and Indonesia. Josh, a former data analyst, handles the business side while John leads roasting, and the pair have sold over 100,000 bags nationwide since launch. Their name is a quiet nod to the brothers' faith, and that understated sincerity carries through in everything from their sourcing transparency to their partnerships with more than 20 independent establishments across Malaysia.
