This Ethiopia Sidamo is a classic coffee from the Sidamo region of Ethiopia, known for its clean and aromatic profile. Made from traditional Heirloom varieties, this washed coffee offers a clear, refined, and elegant cup. The tasting notes include jasmine flower, grapefruit, spice, and a black tea-like finish. It has medium body with bright, balanced acidity, making it particularly suitable for filter brewing methods.
Boxx Coffee Roasters Co was founded in Istanbul in 2015 by Mert Soley, a former car racer, and Altug Baser, a scientist, before expanding to Los Angeles in 2021 with partner Arda Barlas. The Downtown Arts District roastery and café specialises in light roasted, origin focused coffees with an emphasis on floral, citrus, and fruity notes, sourcing single origin microlots from Bolivia, Congo, Ecuador, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Uganda. A signature offering is Turkish style cezve coffee brewed slowly in the traditional manner, honouring the founders' heritage. The espresso programme runs on a La Marzocco Strada with Mahlkonig Peak grinders, and the team pursues what they call the God Shot philosophy of perfect espresso alignment.
