Originally found in Ethiopia, Wush Wush is a low-yield, rare variety that has become popular in specialty coffee over the past few years. Compared to Geisha and other famous rare varieties, Wush Wush has a unique cup profile that can stun and surprise even experienced cuppers. Many notable heirloom varieties from Ethiopia’s coffee-growing regions are named after the location where they are first found. Wush Wush is no exception. Wushwush (no space) is a small area in southwest Ethiopia, not far from the renowned growing regions of Jimma and Sidama. Wushwush is known for its fertile highlands, where rich, vibrant teas grow, with sensory similarities to those of Wush Wush coffee.
