Limu is a brand name for the medium-sized coffee beans that come from southwestern / south-central Ethiopia with a distinctive round shape and green color. The area is forested, has plenty of natural water and rich soil. With a similar environment but also cultivation conditions as the neighboring ones Yirgacheffe and Sidamo, this coffee has the same yellowish vibrancy and aromatic floral notes. This comes from Mrs. Eleanna Georgali, 4th generation producer. Eleanna has done an admirable job continuing her father’s legacy at Moplaco. Under its leadership, Moplaco is constantly evolving to produce increasing quality coffee, despite the complexity and challenges that Ethiopian producers are constantly facing.
