Bergamot is the citrus-floral note that defines high-altitude Ethiopian washed coffee. It reads as a brighter, more floral citrus than orange or lemon — closer to Earl Grey tea bergamot. Atlas Coffee Club Ethiopia Limu carries this as its primary descriptor. See the Citrus & Floral family guide.
The price sits above most washed Ethiopian light roasts on the market, and the cup mostly justifies it: bergamot and stone fruit at maximum acidity, precise and distinct in a way most regional competitors don't achieve.
Built for pour over drinkers who track florals before everything else, this Worka Chelichele cup delivers bergamot, jasmine, and lemon at maximum acidity with very little weight underneath.
The price isn't posted yet, but the cup makes a case on its own: bergamot and stone fruit brightness at 4/5 acidity, with bitterness so low it stops being a consideration.
