Chiroso gets its name from the slang term "Chiro," which refers to a worn-out, old t-shirt. This distinctive variety is a mutation of an Ethiopian Landrace, first discovered in the Antioquia province of Colombia (Urrao). Famous for its rarity, Chiroso is characterized by its elongated beans and outstanding sensory attributes. In many ways, Chiroso serves as the region's domesticated version of the Geisha variety, offering a truly unique and exceptional flavor profile.
