This variety,  from the Southwest of Ethiopia produces a distinctive cup unlike traditional varieties of the Americas and more like the best coffees of Ethiopia. A super star variety, some examples have sold for more than $4000\/lb in online auctions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many other wild\/semi-wild varieties from Ethiopia in research collections around the world. In 2007 Hacienda La Esmeralda began a project of planting 400 different Ethiopian Accessions from CATIE in Costa Rica on 6 acres (2.45 hectares) of land at their El Velo farm at 1700masl. Most of these were plants collected from Southwest Ethiopia by FAO in 1964, and a few are older collections such as Dilla \u0026amp; Alghe and Cioiccie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis year they harvested 4000lb (1800kg) of coffee from all of these varieties and blended them together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe varieties are harvested separately and washed processed. Cherries are pulped and then the fruit removed with a mechanical demucilager, after that the parchment is held in concrete tanks for 24 hours before being dried in small racks on top of a concrete patio for 8-10 days. After resting in parchment for 30 days the coffees are cupped multiple times and then the lots are blended together a milled and graded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paradise Coffee","offers":[{"title":"4oz \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":39605987967081,"sku":"pn-ea-4oz","price":159.13,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4oz \/ Auto Drip","offer_id":47299776774434,"sku":"pn-ea-4oz-AD","price":159.13,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4oz \/ French Press","offer_id":47299776807202,"sku":"pn-ea-4oz-FP","price":159.13,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12oz \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":39605987999849,"sku":"pn-ea","price":397.82,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12oz \/ Auto Drip","offer_id":47299776839970,"sku":"pn-ea-AD","price":397.82,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12oz \/ French Press","offer_id":47299776872738,"sku":"pn-ea-FP","price":397.82,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5LB \/ Whole Bean","offer_id":39605988032617,"sku":"pn-ea-5","price":2983.63,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1403\/7057\/products\/image_f873bc1b-5229-4eb6-84da-3158cdf4580f.jpg?v=1630008912","url":"https:\/\/paradiseroasters.com\/zh-hk\/products\/panama-hacienda-la-esmeralda-ethiopian-accessions","provider":"Paradise Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
