I've been roasting coffee for 33 years. During this time, countless lots have passed through our roastery. It's now been almost 5 years that we've been roasting András's Ethiopian coffees, which have always been among the most exceptional lots from Ethiopia. However, this lot cannot be compared to any of them. We have never received so much positive feedback. I would especially highlight the Kecskemét Nano Café, whose owner said that their most critical customer came into the café multiple times a day because of this coffee. The news about the coffee even reached the press. Thank you, András, for giving us the opportunity to roast this lot.

Working with ETOP has elevated our entire offering. The level of traceability and transparency behind each village lot is unmatched, and the consistency from harvest to roasting has been exceptional. Our customers immediately noticed the clarity in the cup, and these coffees quickly became staples in our lineup. ETOP is setting a new benchmark for Ethiopian sourcing.

Since we introduced ETOP's Ethiopian village coffees, our regulars have started asking for them by name. The flavor profiles are so distinctive that customers often want to try every lot we bring in. It's rare to find coffees that create this kind of excitement at the bar. ETOP has become a real value driver for our café.

ETOP coffees are the kind you want to take straight to competition. Clean, expressive, and full of character—exactly what judges look for. I've brewed countless Ethiopian coffees over the years, but the village separation concept brings clarity and uniqueness I haven't found elsewhere. These coffees help baristas shine.

As a home roaster, I'm always searching for beans that respond well across different roast levels. ETOP coffees have been a revelation. Each village lot behaves predictably in the roaster yet delivers a completely different experience in the cup. It's the most engaging and rewarding selection I've ever worked with.
