Ethiopian Yirgacheffe

Ethiopia, the legendary home of the coffee plant and Africa's largest exporter, grows remarkably varied and distinctive beans. One of the very finest comes from the Yirgacheffe region -- the only coffee allowed in the palaces of Ethiopian kings. Today, this bean, which grows in high elevations under a soft canopy of native shade trees, is developing an almost cult-like following among bean aficionados. Widely recognized as one of the world's most exquisite coffees, Yirgacheffe's fragrant and flowery citrus note sets it apart from any other bean you will encounter. Many compare its rich flavor to that of burgundy wines. Full City Style Roast

Testimonials

"My reoccurring ache for a coffee will never change. What is changing is my awareness of, and appreciation for, the nuances of finer roasts and brews. In the few short months since I have known our friend Happy Goat, I have developed a whole new respect for the bean. As a result, my coffee break has now turned into my coffee worship. Babae's Blend forever!

"From my student days and throughout my career, coffee-drinking has been a regular component of my day. However, until I hooked up recently with the Happy Goat, I had no idea how good a cup of coffee could taste - rich, full-bodied, so satisfying. No if, ands or butts about it! All those wasted years........ "

“I thought I knew what I liked when it came to coffee. That is, until I tasted my first sip of coffee from the Happy Goat! Every cup has been a discovery – and there’s been no looking back. Happy Goat Coffee is now the only coffee I brew at home.”

Pat Aubin
"I'd never heard of "Siphon Filtering" before the Happy Goat, but let me tell you I tasted the difference! Smooth, rich, full-bodied! Perfect!"

"Best coffee I have every had, and I come from a long line of hard core coffee drinkers. Pierre created a unique blend for me of half decaf half dark beans roasted together. Something I could never get off the shelf or from other roasters. The aroma, freshness, and taste have me hooked. Happy Goat has made me one happy coffee drinker!"

"I was in deed a "Happy Goat"ee after my first cup of your ethiopian dark roast coffee. My partner took the beans in to a popular coffee establishment starting with "S" to have it ground and when they put it into there grinder the aroma made them exclaim - Now that's coffee!

I look forward to many happy cups of Pierre's special blends in the future. "

"Pierre Richard's coffee made me feel like I had died and gone to heaven ... but of course I did not die when I drank "Pierre's coffee - and that in itself is a good thing. However, it will be the rich, full bodiedness of a medium style roast, or the deliciously powerful nutty aroma of a dark roast from Happy Goat Coffee which I will savour until my dying days!"

"Pierre's coffee is by far the best I have ever had, I assume due to his skill at bean selection and roasting, and as well getting the beans roasted day of pick up.

You know you have the right house by smelling the fresh roasted beans half a block away, and seeing beans on the stairway!"
