13:05 Coffee Segment

Some people boogie in their backyard, others brawl or have brews … but this week's coffee has origins of roasting on a grill. We picked up a few bags of Backyard Beans Coffee Company's Ethiopian Basa and put it to the JTD test. Between the two of us it hit on every tasting note and aroma. A great Ethiopian heirloom. 

Name/Roaster: Backyard Beans Coffee Company
Region: Ethiopia Basa
Origin: Idido, Yirga Cheffe
Process: Natural (dry process)
Altitude: 2042 masl
Tasting Notes:  blueberry, lavender, grape taffy

About the Roaster:

(via the company's web site)
The company name came about because all the work was initially done in our backyard. The logo is also significant because the initials of Laura L. Adams and Matt Adams spell “L.L.A.M.A.”

Our name and logo together reflect the hard work and dedication that goes into creating superior coffee. In many ways, Backyard Beans is a labor of love.

We only purchase superior, responsibly sourced coffee beans. Working with importers to source sustainably grown coffee from around the world is something in which we take great pride. Great coffee begins at the heart, with hard-working farmers and co-ops. By sourcing, we’re doing our part to secure a sustainable future.
