Idido is a small village in the Aricha area of Gedeo, Yirgacheffe. The coffee grows at 1,800–2,200 metres, and roasters around the world look for this area's harvest every year.
Yirgacheffe as it should be: a floral aroma, a taste that recalls tea with lemon and lime, and a lightly spiced finish. At its best as filter, and a surprise as espresso.
