Ethiopia coffee beans is a dark roast with a clean, sweet profile and gentle fruit character. Grown by smallholder farmers in Sidama and naturally sun-dried, this coffee offers smooth body, low acidity, and a softer expression of Ethiopian flavour. Choose it when you want an Ethiopia that feels approachable, rounded, and easy to enjoy every day.
Find Your Best Grind

For the best flavour, we recommend whole beans and grinding just before brewing. This gives you more control and keeps your coffee tasting its best.

If you’d like it pre-ground, we’ve matched each grind to your brewing method:

Coarse: Best for French press, percolator and cold brew.

Medium-Coarse: Great for Chemex, Clever Dripper, and longer AeroPress brews.

Medium: Perfect for drip coffee makers and flat bottom pour overs.

Medium-Fine: Ideal for pour over (V60) and AeroPress with shorter brew times.

Fine: Best for espresso and moka pots.

Behind The Beans

Ethiopia

Coffee in Sidamo is shaped by a production system that is both deeply traditional and highly decentralized. Unlike more consolidated origins, most farms are small, garden-style plots where coffee is grown alongside other crops, creating a naturally diverse growing environment. This approach, combined with the region’s elevation and steady climate patterns, allows cherries to develop gradually, building sugars and density over time.

The lot is made from Ethiopian Heirloom varieties, a broad group of traditional coffee genetics known for expressive flavour and regional character. Unlike many brighter Ethiopian coffees, this one is roasted dark to create a smoother, lower-acidity cup while still keeping a gentle fruit note underneath the roast.

The natural sun-dried process allows the coffee cherry to dry with the seed inside, encouraging more body and sweetness in the final cup. The result is an Ethiopian coffee with soft fruit character, rounded texture, and a clean finish that stays approachable.

Why you'll love this coffee

The dark roast makes the cup smoother, fuller, and easier to drink every day, while the natural process keeps a subtle fruit sweetness in the background. It is a great option for coffee lovers who want something more interesting than a basic dark roast, but still want comfort, body, and balance.

Brew it as drip for a clean daily cup, French press for more texture, or espresso-style when you want a deeper, fruit-toned dark roast. This is Ethiopia with a softer edge: flavourful, smooth, and quietly distinctive.

Why we are different

Why choose Crickle Creek Coffee?

We’re fourth-generation coffee farmers roasting in Calgary since 1994, with seed-to-cup knowledge behind every bag.

Coffee is personal. We’re here to help you find a coffee you genuinely love.

From special micro lots on our family farm in El Salvador to carefully sourced coffees from exceptional farmers around the world, every specialty coffee is roasted in Calgary to bring out its best character.

Whether you love smooth medium roasts, rich medium-dark coffees, unapologetically dark roasts, decaf, or half-caff, we make it easier to find a brew that fits your taste, your routine, and your day.

Brew boldly. Live fully.

How fresh will my coffee be?

Freshness starts before roasting. We use current-harvest green coffee from carefully selected lots, not old beans sitting for years.

Then we roast to order.

That matters because “freshly roasted” can still mean coffee was roasted in a large batch, stored, and sold later. Roast-to-order means we roast after your order is placed, then ship the next day from our Calgary roastery.

Because we sell direct, your coffee skips the grocery shelf and warehouse rotation. It travels while it rests after roasting, so it reaches your home closer to its best drinking window.

The benefit is simple: better coffee from the start, better timing after roasting, more aroma in the bag, and a cup that tastes the way it was meant to taste.

How does shipping work?

We ship directly from our Calgary roastery across Canada, the next day after roasting.

Free shipping is available on orders over $30 in Calgary and surrounding areas, and over $60 across Canada. Most orders arrive within 2–4 days, depending on location.

How should I store my coffee?

Keep your coffee sealed in a cool, dry place away from heat, light, moisture, and strong smells. A pantry or cupboard is perfect.

For the best flavour, enjoy your coffee within 4 weeks of roasting. If unopened and stored properly, whole bean coffee can still be enjoyed for up to 4 months, but its aroma and flavour will gradually soften over time.

Whole bean stays fresher longer than ground coffee, so we recommend grinding just before brewing whenever possible.
