kalitä

Kalita is a traditional method of brewing coffee that originated in Ethiopia. The process involves using a special filter called a jebena, which is a cone-shaped device made from a hollowed-out gourd or a metal cup. The coffee beans are roasted, ground, and then placed into the jebena. Hot water is poured over the coffee grounds, and the liquid drips through the filter into a cup below. The resulting brew is known for its smooth, rich flavor and is often enjoyed as a social ritual in Ethiopian culture. Kalita coffee is typically served with sugar and sometimes cardamom, and is often accompanied by traditional Ethiopian dishes. The brewing process can take several minutes, allowing for a slow extraction of flavors. Despite its traditional roots, kalita has gained popularity in coffee circles worldwide, appreciated for its unique taste and the cultural experience it offers.
