Wush Wush is a varietal that originated in Ethiopia and it is named after the small growing town of Wushwush. Since then, the varietal has started showing up in other countries such as Colombia. It is considered to be a rare varietal, although, due to its intense flavor profile, it has recently become more popular and sought after as the demand for unique specialty coffee increases. Over the last few years different versions of the Wush Wush varietal have boasted big scores on Coffee Review.

Very pronounced fruit. Deep coffee fruit, berries, concentrated wine flavors. Long finish. Green apple tartness in the background.

Over the years we have offered Don Julian's well regarded Pacamara, but they also grow Geisha.
