The most memorable cup in my life (far more than Esmerelda auction) was a Clovered Ethiopian at Intelli LA. I think it was the "blueberry bomb" of recent repute. Was it Ethiopia Harar Lot 30 harvest 07? Also, anyone know if this was DP or WP?
Can any of you speak in generalities about the differences among the Ethiopian regions?

If that was the lot you had--it was the blueberry bomb. It was dry processed, as are ~most Harrars.
There are tons of wet-processed Ethiopian beans--Yirgacheffe are typically wet-processed. I know folks that have raved about it--I haven't snagged any (yet) for my stash.
There is lots of information on Ethiopian coffee--google or search on the forum. I'd write more, but there's much more and better information already written here and elsewhere.
