74140 is one of the numbered varieties released by Ethiopia's Jimma Agricultural Research Center, the digits recording the year and plot of selection. Developed from wild Ethiopian material gathered at Metu Bishari, it was distributed to farmers for its resistance to coffee berry disease and reliable yields. The cup tends toward clean florals, citrus and sweet fruit, reflecting the quality of its indigenous parentage. It is now common across western and southern Ethiopia, often blended under the broader "heirloom" label.
