"Buku Saisa Natural: An Impressive Ethiopian Heirloom Coffee"

Jan 26, 2024 - 11:36amSummary: I'm really enjoying the Ethiopian heirloom coffee from Bird Rock, called Buku Saisa Natural. It's a naturally processed variety grown at an elevation of 2,000 to 3,000, or maybe 2,000 to 2,300 MASL, which I believe refers to altitude. The coffee is quite impressive and nearly mind-blowing in its quality. It's really good coffee.

Transcript: The coffee that I got from Bird Rock seems to be pretty good. I'm enjoying it a lot. It's an Ethiopian naturally processed heirloom variety at 2,000 to 3,000, or 2,000 to 2,300 MASL. I don't know what MASL is, but some kind of elevation, I assume. And the name is Buku Saisa Natural. And, yeah, pretty dang good. Like... Kind of, like, blew my mind. Not quite, but, like, close to how good it is. Really good coffee.
