Story

This coffee comes from Banko Chelchele, located in the Gedeo Zone of southern Ethiopia. Grown at elevations between 1,900 and 2,300 MASL, the coffee thrives in fertile, well-drained red clay soils and a climate well suited to high-quality coffee production.

Ripe coffee cherries are carefully handpicked by smallholder farmers and sorted before undergoing a controlled anaerobic fermentation process. The cherries are sealed in an oxygen-free environment for 7–10 days at temperatures between 15–18°C, allowing for precise control over fermentation. They are then slowly dried on elevated African beds under shade for 15–20 days, with regular turning to ensure even drying and preserve quality.

This Medium roast results in a cup that is balanced with Vanilla, Blueberry Muffin, and a burst of cherry. Bursting with blueberry, this coffee is perfect as a drip coffee or a vibrant espresso.
